Why Donate?

Detroit is overflowing with talent. The city isn’t lacking in creativity — it’s lacking in visibility, structure, and support. Too many Black youth creators are overlooked, underfunded, and without safe spaces to share their gifts.

That’s where Nexodus comes in.

For nearly a decade, we’ve built a platform of over 200,000 followers, and now we’re using it to amplify the voices of the next generation. From music to writing, streaming to skateboarding, our mission is to take youth who aren’t being seen — and make sure their light shines.

Your donation directly fuels this mission by:

• Funding safe, structured spaces for youth to perform and connect.

• Creating opportunities and platforms for overlooked talent.

• Providing resources and financial support so young creators can grow their craft.

When you give to Nexodus, you’re not just donating to an event — you’re investing in the future of Detroit’s culture. You’re ensuring that Black youth creators have the recognition, support, and opportunities they deserve.

✨ Detroit has the talent. Together, we can give it the spotlight.
