Last year, the turnout was unprecedented, raising significant funds for the Genesis House, and this year promises even more enthusiasm.
A Cause Rooted in Compassion
Genesis House isn’t just a name—it’s a lifeline for many in Livingston County.

This year’s lineup also includes Howell Mayor Bob Ellis and County Prosecutor Carolyn Henry, among others. Their hands-on involvement bridges the gap between citizens and leadership, making the cause personal and relatable.
Rallying Enthusiasm: From Football to Food
Coinciding with the electric Michigan vs. Michigan State rivalry game, activities at the cafe reach beyond serving. A silent auction of fierce fan apparel promises to stoke passions further. Attendees are encouraged to sport their favorite team’s colors, adding an extra splash of excitement and camaraderie to the day.
