About Give Merit and the FATE Program:

Give Merit exists to enhance and extend educational opportunities to Detroit youth through innovative enrichment, mentorship, and athletic activities. Since 2012, Give Merit has facilitated the FATE Program - an eight-year, cohort-based program supporting students from Detroit’s Jalen Rose Leadership Academy. FATE provides innovative programming that blends project-based learning, character development, career exposure, and mentorship into a co-curricular experience emphasizing the value of education and its role in achieving long-term career and personal goals. Your support will ensure at least 20 of our students receive a $5,000 scholarship.
