FUNDRAISING FOR IMPACT
Fundraisers are the heartbeat of the T. Wall Foundation’s mission. They power our ability to support special needs students with essential resources and life-changing experiences. From community gatherings to signature fundraising events, every dollar raised goes directly toward creating opportunities for those who need it most. Your support makes it all possible.

All Star Hot Dog Stand – A Game Day Tradition That Gives Back
Every University of Michigan home football game, the T. Wall Foundation fires up its All Star Hot Dog Stand—just steps from the Big House at 1011 S. Main Street in Ann Arbor. Staffed by special needs students and volunteers, this beloved tradition serves up hot dogs, chips, candy, and drinks to hungry fans, with 100% of proceeds supporting local students with disabilities.
Established in 2003, the stand not only raises vital funds but also empowers the young people who help run it, giving them meaningful roles and a chance to engage with the community on game day. Funds raised go directly toward assisting families in need, guided by hardship letters submitted by special education teachers across Washtenaw County.
Whether you're a die-hard Wolverine or just passing by, stop by before kickoff to grab a bite and support a great cause. Follow us on social media for updates!
