​Pages Bookshop, a beloved Detroit literary hub, was saved from closure by the youth-led Steen Foundation to preserve its impact on community literacy and culture. Now reimagined as a space for empowerment and storytelling, the shop hosts a Free Mobile Book Fair that brings books directly to underserved neighborhoods and schools. Through initiatives like the Susan and Pip Scholarship Fund, Pages is not just a place to buy books—it’s a launchpad for the next generation of leaders, readers, and change makers.​
