South Oakland Shelter (SOS) Dancing with the Stars

The 11th annual Dancing with the Detroit Stars was staged to a packed house at The Townsend Hotel, Birmingham. The star-studded evening benefited the newly-combined Lighthouse and South Oakland Shelter. Celebrity dancers trained at Arthur Murray Dance Studio and featured Jennifer Granger, Marina Lagocha & Clive Phillips, Brooke Miller and Rabbi Rachel Shere. Brooke Miller won the competition and Rabbi Rachel Shere took home the award for top fundraiser. The evening’s proceeds of $230,400 will directly benefit families and individuals struggling with poverty.
