Established in 1960, the Skillman Foundation supports quality education, economic opportunities, and equitable civic action for Detroit youth. The foundation awards $15-17 million in grants on an annual basis. To expand its support of resident-led community development projects, the foundation began a PRI (Program-related Investments) program in 2013. The initiative is credited with supporting the expansion of a youth-operated bike shop and the creation of an aquaponic produce growing facility, among other projects.
