That’s one of the many reasons why over ten cities across Michigan have collaborated with us. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fbd76ffd9ae0260604f9a62/7a986a87-f07e-4842-be9a-a571f962542d/Gov4Tomorrow-31.jpg What we do - More and more cities begin to work with Government for Tomorrow to involve the youth in their community.

After realizing how unique his position was, he founded Government for Tomorrow, Inc. to give his peers the same opportunity. At 20, Liam serves as the organization’s Operations Coordinator. “I started working with cities in my area as a small project to involve the youth in my community — somehow or another that turned into an organization. I couldn’t be prouder of the work we’ve done.” Liam has been on the Charlevoix DDA since November 2019, and he was reappointed in April 2022 to the board as a voting member. Liam says that he enjoys reading, playing the piano and saxophone, chess, and building LEGO.
