A Place to Belong

Annual Celebration Event

October 28–29, 2026

THE 906 at TREETOPS COLLECTIVE

What does it take to belong?

For many refugee and immigrant women and teen girls in West Michigan, belonging doesn’t happen all at once. It is built over time—through trust, meaningful relationships, and spaces where each person is truly seen, valued, and welcomed.

On October 28–29, 2026, we invite you to experience this firsthand at Treetops Collective’s Annual Event, A Place to Belong.

This inspiring and immersive event celebrates the beauty and possibility that emerge when everyone experiences radical welcome and true belonging. This year, we’re offering something entirely new and exciting. Across two days, guests will choose one of five intimate, 90-minute experiences, each offering a unique opportunity to step inside the world of Treetops.

During your selected experience, you’ll explore The 906 and Treetops signature Social Enterprises, hear powerful stories of transformation and welcome, experience cross-cultural connection (and maybe even some dancing!), shop our collection, and learn how Treetops is cultivating belonging alongside refugee and immigrant women and teen girls.

Enjoy globally inspired hors d'oeuvres and refreshing beverages, and bid on one-of-a-kind handmade pieces from our signature Sewn Collection.

Choose the experience time that works best for you and join us for a meaningful celebration of Treetops Collective and the shared work of creating A Place to Belong.

As a host, you'll select one of five available times to bring your table together for an intimate 90-minute journey into Treetops.

Each invitee must be registered separately for your table using the unique code. On the day of the celebration, welcome your guests and experience Treetops together.
