Where Food Meets Mentorship!

The Grub Club is a mentorship program for young men residing in Detroit, ages 13-17, seeking male guidance, financial & business literacy, life skills, peer-to-peer social engagement, and powerful dining experiences.

The program serves 15-20 members each year and offers a 3-day experience every month, starting in April.

Monthly Meet Ups:

Day 1

Mentoring Session

Mentors & mentees meet up for meal and a mentoring session centered around goal setting, networking, self-awareness, social etiquette, communication, and other life skills. 

Day 2

Financial Literacy Workshop

The Grub Club partners with financial institutions to provide a full curriculum filled with lessons around financial literacy. In 2025 Comerica Bank taught our mentees through the Money $ense Workshop! 

Day 3

Mentor Dinner

The club travels to local restaurants to experience in-person dining and demonstrate social skills in public settings. On their trips they try new cuisines, build relationships, and learn, first-hand, from restaurant owners, what it takes to run a successful business.  Our 2025 sponsoring restaurants included: Gilbert's Lodge, Ferlito's Family Restaurant, Jacoby's German Biergarten, Crazy Gringo Cantina, and Zestia Greek Street Food.
