Community Partners
A community partnership should begin with a specific public benefit, responsible organizations, a defined audience, and a realistic delivery plan. Rebuild Detroit can evaluate proposed resource, workforce, housing, education, event, and neighborhood collaborations without presenting an inquiry as an approved partnership.

01
Start with a concrete community outcome
Describe the people and geography the proposal serves, the problem it addresses, the action residents or businesses can take, and the result each organization expects. Identify whether the request concerns information distribution, an event, referrals, workforce access, research, a public-service campaign, sponsorship, or another defined activity. Broad requests to partner are difficult to evaluate without that detail.
Include the legal organization name, responsible contact, current website, relevant program page, service area, timeline, and any eligibility rules. State what is already funded or operational and what depends on approval. Rebuild Detroit does not treat a submitted idea, meeting, logo exchange, or directory link as evidence that a partnership exists.
02
Document authority, accuracy, and source rights
The proposing organization should identify who owns the information, imagery, marks, data, and documents it wants published. Public information still needs a reliable source and retrieval date. Program claims, deadlines, capacity, benefits, and eligibility must come from the operator and must be updated or removed when they change.
If the proposal involves a regulated business, occupation, grant, public agency, or other formal status, provide the authoritative record rather than a marketing summary. Rebuild Detroit may independently verify business identity or licensing through Michigan sources. Verification of a record does not make Rebuild Detroit the operator, funder, endorser, or guarantor of the program.
03
Separate editorial, referral, and paid relationships
A source can be useful to an editorial page without becoming a partner. A community referral arrangement, co-produced resource, sponsor placement, and paid advertisement are different relationships and should not be described interchangeably. Each approved activity needs written ownership, disclosure, duration, placement, measurement, correction, and exit terms appropriate to its role.
Payment does not change Rebuild Detroit's verification standard and does not purchase a favorable editorial conclusion. Paid placement must be labeled. A partner should not imply exclusivity, government approval, guaranteed reach, or endorsement unless the signed agreement expressly establishes that fact and the public disclosure accurately explains it.
04
Submit enough information for a responsible review
Use the contact path with a concise proposal, the intended Rebuild Detroit section, requested launch window, responsible decision maker, and supporting links. Do not send private resident records, credentials, health information, payment data, or other unnecessary sensitive material in an initial inquiry. Rebuild Detroit can request a secure next step if a proposal advances.
An inquiry does not reserve inventory, create a listing, approve a campaign, or commit either party. Current availability and terms must be confirmed in writing. This page is the planning standard for community relationships; active product pricing belongs to the live commerce path, while binding verification commitments remain on the separately approved How We Vet page.
