Come Play Detroit
Come Play Detroit facilitated two large programs in 2024, each of which engaged thousands of Detroit youths in sports and various other activities. The Detroit Pistons Neighbors Program is funded through 2 foundations, the Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Foundation and William Davidson Foundation. The program activated 12 parks in the city, providing daily activities, snacks, and a variety of 3rd party programs, i.e. yoga, basketball, lacrosse, volleyball, arts & crafts, and more!
Our other program, The Monroe Midway, had its final year activating the Monroe Block in the heart of downtown Detroit. We had a wide range of activities available for attendees, all for free! Summer activities included rollerskating, basketball courts, putt-putt and live entertainment, and our Winter activities included bumper cars, a tented arcade, a 20ft tall slide, and a hockey themed putt-putt (puck-putt!). Through a generous donation from the Gilbert Family Foundation we were able to provide free buses to transport kids from Detroit Public Schools and after school programs located in Detroit. We engaged with over 10,000 Detroit youths in 2024 with free access to play!

XOSO Sports & Social League
Xoso Sport & Social League has a long history of supporting the community, not only through financial donations, but by utilizing our player base as a volunteer organization for local non-profits. When nonprofits need volunteers, they can come to Xoso for help filling their needs. We post their needs on our website as a "league" and act as the intermediary.
We have also donated over $100,000 through our large food festival events, the Sactown Wings chicken wing festival and Sacramento Grilled Cheese Festival.
