Meet Kyle's Challenge

October 11, 2012

Update - 10/11/12 3:50 PM:

Over 200 WDET listeners have committed themselves to Kyle's Challenge today! We've hit our goal but we know there are so many people who believe in making a difference that haven't been able to participate. So we have a solution.

WDET will DOUBLE the amount we give to each youth-focused nonprofit - that's 5, $20,000 free promotional campaigns - when we reach 400 donors.


WDET has received the largest challenge gift in the stations' history from Gary Cone and Aimee Cowher, the team behind Global Productivity Solutions. They love the way WDET's Community Impact Campaigns make a difference in our region. So together, WDET, Gary, and Aimee have created Kyle's Challenge - our most ambitious Community Impact Campaign yet. If 200 people donate to WDET today - we'll give 5, $10,000 free on-air campaigns to local, youth-focused non-profits.


Hear the story of Gary, Aimee and the Kyle John Rymiszewski Foundation:


We've selected these organizations because they are making a huge impact in the lives of area young people: The Ruth Ellis Center, Inside/Out Literary Arts, Covenant House, Think Detroit P.A.L. and The Kyle John Rymiszewski Foundation

Make a good thing great. Spread the word!

Let's set a new bar for people in Southeast Michigan banding together to do something great for our region. After you make your gift, challenge your network to do the same!
