In the City of Highland Park, teamGM Cares worked to beautify Wayne Metro’s Cortland Community Impact Center and surrounding neighborhood, cleaned up parks, and made walkways to school safe for children and families. In Taylor and Inkster, the group repaired and improved food pantries and small grassroots organizations where the work would have otherwise gone undone. Each year, the group hosts “teamGM Cares Week,” which ensures that giving back remains a cornerstone of this organization.
