The Shu Foundation, in partnership with Radio One, Forgotten Harvest and Central
City Integrated Health, is proud to host Detroit's 6th Annual Red Carpet Backyard BBQ for
the Homeless & Hungry from 11 a.m. - 3 p.m. on Saturday, October 28, 2017 at Bert's
Warehouse, 2739 Russell Street in Eastern Market.

This program provides hot meals, grocery give-a-aways, and vital access to human service agencies to more than 10,000 homeless and hungry citizens in Detroit. Organizers say the signature event is designed to empower, uplift and encourage individuals who live in public
housing, those who are either uninsured or underinsured, veterans, homeless and the
underserved.

The event will include free meals, health and wellness checks, celebrity appearances and
live entertainment.  The Harvest Fest Shu Kids Candy Give-a-Way will also be available as a special treat for children.
