Your Michigan getaway becomes an act of kindness at Saint John's Resort.
More than just a luxurious escape, your stay directly empowers communities through initiatives that make an impact. We fight hunger by rescuing excess food from our restaurants and banquets, donating more than 12,200 pounds in 2023 alone, and providing thousands of meals to local soup kitchens. Our resort also opens its doors to refugees, offering housing, employment training, and on-site ESL classes to help them build a better life in their new homeland.
Additionally, we partner with organizations like Gesher Human Services to create job opportunities for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. And we partner with businesses, organizations, and the public. Groups booking events can choose from a menu of community service activities, while families can enjoy on-site First Tee programming, which teaches young people valuable life skills through golf.

Here's How We Are Making The World a Better Place At Saint John's
We donate our excess restaurant and banquet food to Food Rescue Detroit, who then deliver the food to local non-profit organizations such as soup kitchens, senior centers, and after school programs. We have donated over 14,000 lbs. of food since we began our partnership in 2022, providing 28,000+ meals.
We employ 7 individuals from the Living and Learning Enrichment Center and 5 individuals from Gesher Human Services who provide janitorial services. Saint John’s Resort won Gesher Human Service's "Employer of the Year" award in 2024.
We offer volunteer activities to groups looking to give back to the community. Corporate clients can join us in our mission by selecting from a menu of community service team-building activities that was developed in partnership with The Hope Clinic.
The Cardinal at Saint John’s is a programming site for First Tee – Greater Detroit, which uses golf to teach kids critical life skills such as perseverance and resiliency.
We are going on our 4th year of participating in Detroit Cristo Rey and Loyola High School's work study programs.
