WEST BLOOMFIELD, Mich. (WXYZ) — The Chaldean Community Foundation is expanding its reach in metro Detroit with a new $15 million center in West Bloomfield, bringing cultural preservation services to complement its existing Sterling Heights location.
In metro Detroit, the presence of the Chaldean community is strong.
“Metro Detroit’s home to the largest Chaldean community outside of Iraq, numbering some 200,000 who contribute $18 billion to Michigan’s economy. There’s been quite an influx since 2007 after the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq,” said Martin Manna, president of Chaldean Community Foundation.
Manna explained that the new location will serve a bit different purpose than their Sterling Heights facility.
