HOME | LDF The goal of Legacy Development Foundation is to bring forth pre-apprenticeship opportunities for our youth in the community. This will provide them with foundational skills in an applicable environment. One of the ways we do this is through our "Building the Foundation" workforce development program...

The Legacy Development Foundation has created a workforce development program for high school students called “Building the Foundation”. This program is designed to raise awareness about opportunities available in the skilled trades industry while providing exposure and professional training that will enable them to partake in this vital labor sector. This will also afford students the tools needed to build a long-lasting career which will support them, their families and the future of Detroit.
