Data Driven Detroit and Urban Organic invite you to NVI Homecoming, an unforgettable evening of music, food, and community celebration that honors Detroit’s neighborhood leaders.
🎧 Featuring DJ Luminary Mario Lemons (aka DJ HALL PASS) — Detroit native, Head of School at Detroit Achievement Academy, and Skillman Foundation Visionary Awardee — spinning an elevated musical soundscape inspired by his journey as an educator, artist, and community builder.
Guests will groove, connect, and celebrate to a live mix curated by Mario while enjoying a delectable buffet from award-winning international chef Honey Cunningham. Between dance battles and storytelling moments, guests can explore a walk-through, interactive experience showcasing the Neighborhood Vitality Index (NVI) — a free community tool that helps Detroiters shape stronger neighborhoods by measuring what matters most, from schools and safety to parks, healthcare, and city services.
🎉 The night will be packed with raffles, prizes, and surprises as we celebrate the data that drives Detroit forward.
This is the perfect evening for leaders of community development organizations, nonprofits, block clubs, schools, local businesses, and anyone who loves Detroit and loves music.
