Our Home in Southwest Michigan
Contribute to a more loving community for all.
We are proud Michiganders who work, play, raise our families, and make our homes here. This is also where John Fetzer made his home and career and where we continue to carry on his legacy.
We have a long history of engagement in Southwest Michigan. As part of our commitment to this community, we collaborate locally to support personal growth and development; offer trainings and tools in support of a flourishing democracy; and present events to help us realize a more loving world, one that begins in our own community. Learn more about this initiative below.
