After choosing a local & Detroit-based causes/non-profit/charity I designed a custom cleat to uplift The Doc Dennard Fellowship Program. By combining artistic expression with community support, this project celebrates Detroit's talent and spirit while making a real difference.
Once the NFL Draft concluded, the cleats were auctioned off individually at a community event held at The Godfrey Hotel, with all the proceeds from the sale of the cleats to benefit the local cause represented by the cleat.
