Ann Arbor, Michigan Sep 20, 2024 (Issuewire.com) - On October 12, 2024, Light Up St. Ignace brings together sports, arts, and entertainment for an unforgettable day of giving and community impact. Featuring members of the 2024 University of Michigan Football Team and celebrity guests, Light Up St. Ignace is a powerful Light Up initiative focused on the spirit of philanthropy, taking a meaningful step toward making a difference in the lives of Detroits youth.

University of Michigan football players Will Johnson, Donovan Edwards, Mason Graham, Colston Loveland, Alex Orji, Jaishawn Barham, Derrick Moore, and Kenneth Grant, joined by UFC Hall of Famer Chuck Liddell and Top Gun: Maverick actress Lyliana Wray will come together to light the way for positive change to students across Detroit's public schools.

Detroits 106 public schools serve over 50,000 students, with nearly 60% impacted by out-of-school challenges that develop in high-poverty contexts: limiting resources that affect many aspects of life. Light Up St. Ignace aims to donate 5,000 pairs of socks and shoes - essential footwear - to meet students' basic needs and help alleviate financial hardships that can affect their overall well-being and opportunities for academic advancement.

Through our partnership with LA Gear and LA Gear Gives, SIFF, and with the support of Champions Circle, Light Up St. Ignace is a stepping-stone towards a brighter future. "LA Gear believes making a difference in the lives of others - big or small - is one of the most important things we can do. We're invested in creating a positive impact on community programs to help provide resources and solutions for a neighborhood's unique needs and excited to support Light Up St. Ignace and students across Detroit." Jay Jackson, Executive Vice President of ACI International and LA Gear's brand manager.

Join us for an unforgettable day of giving: Light Up St. Ignace, unite communities, and make a meaningful difference.
