Explorers Use Media to Highlight Donors Uncategorized by Sonya Bernard-Hollins - June 10, 2025June 10, 20250 When we teach kids how to use media for good, they can bring a new perspective to old marketing techniques. I am super proud of these Explorers who created the series, “Why I Give,” to highlight our most dedicated donors over the past 18 years. Diane Lang, a new donor, not only contributed to providing new equipment for the organization, but she also invested in the launch of our Merze Tate Explorers Youth Community Voices Fund. This fund will ensure that we invest in the training and support of youth voices for years to come. Dare’l McMillian and Sasha Hollins work with the Explorer media team to edit video of student interviews for their YouTube Channel. The MERZE TATE EXPLORERS YOUTH COMMUNITY VOICES FUND is held at the Kalamazoo Community Foundation. Please show your support as we empower the voices of our next generation of leaders and build our new endowment fund.
