Love Thy Neighbor

Giving back to our neighbors in the Detroit community.

Love Thy Neighbor is a program that identifies community “neighbors” such as hospitals, nursing homes, and police departments that may need a helping hand. The program was inspired by the COVID-19 outbreak and the sudden need for supplies, support, and hope.

The James H. Cole Legacy Foundation wanted to be of service to its neighbors during this time, donating food and supplies to hospitals, fire stations, and police stations closest to the James H. Cole Home for Funerals’ locations on West Grand Blvd. and Schaefer Hwy.

Interested in donating meals as part of this initiative? We’d love to have you. Register your restaurant or catering business with nblack@jhcfoundation.org or reach out to the team at the Legacy Foundation for more information. If you would like to donate funds please fill out the online form and select the Love Thy Neighbor program.    

2024 Toy Drive

The James H. Cole Legacy Foundation ran our 2024 Annual toy drive from November 20th to December 14th. We would like to take a moment to thank everyone who brought in toys and made this toy drive a success. The joy these toys brought to the children who received them is inexplicable and was only made possible with your help. We want to send a special thank you to Pastor Keith Pugh and the Greater St. Matthew Baptist Church along with Pastor Gaylon Porter and the Holy Cross Baptist Church of Detroit Michigan for their generous donations.
