May 4, 2011 - PRLog -- The retreat is planned at one of Detroit’s finest hotels, and will feature back and foot massages, facials, yoga and music therapy classes. Speakers, meals and an award ceremony also are planned. Recipients will be selected from the top 50 nominees. Vote for the idea every day in May 2011 at refresheverything.com/detroithumanserviceproviders.

Human service providers help the homeless, children and seniors through critical times for minimal pay and often with little recognition. Detroit area caregivers and human service workers work tirelessly, often performing the duties of two or more employees. By voting for this restorative retreat, you help support those who help the most vulnerable in our community.

The Pepsi Refresh Project already has given away thousands of dollars in grants to support communities across America. Now, it’s Detroit’s turn.

Studies show a consistent association between employment in human service occupations and the risk of stress-related health issues.  Your vote for Versandra Kennebrew’s Pepsi Refresh Project retreat for human service providers is a vote to support people who help people who can’t help themselves.
