Summary
Detroit’s air quality plummeted this past Friday as wildfire smoke from Canada and Minnesota blanketed the city, creating some of the worst air in the world — especially brutal for the homeless. Covenant House Michigan stepped in, handing out masks to those living on the streets who can’t just retreat indoors. Stephanie Taylor, a team leader, said masks became essential protection for people who rely on the outdoors — a move they never expected but felt urgent. It’s a powerful reminder of how communities rally to protect the most vulnerable when the weather turns harsh. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
