"Cody High: A Life Remodeled Project" focuses on the efforts of the impoverished Cody Rouge community in Detroit to pull together to provide safe pathways for children by removing blight and abandoned homes. In 2014, with the partnership of Life-Remodeled, a Detroit-focused non-profit organization, the Cody Rouge community rose up alongside over 10,000 volunteers to remodel three schools, tear down three burned-out houses, remodel 25 homes of students and their families, board up 254 vacant houses, and remove blight/create beauty on 303 blocks. "Cody High: A Life Remodeled Project" skillfully portrays the powerful stories of community members directly involved, and how their lives are being shaped as beacons of hope within the great city of Detroit.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Cody High comes back strong submitted by Diahann on July 21, 2015, 11:44pm I was blessed with the best of both worlds by attending Cody High school after leaving Ann Arbor Huron High school.
Although this is not the thriving place I once new. The decline has touched me deeply. I am truly happy to see that a community
of belivers along with corporate America could join hands to make Detroit better. Keep up the good work block by block.
