Gilbert and his wife, Jennifer, are pledging half of a billion dollars through the Gilbert Family Foundation and the Rocket Community Fund to make a real impact on the problems people face. โ€œIโ€™d much rather see property taxes paid, interest and penalties waived, fees waived, fees removed and people have the ability to pay their taxes,โ€ Evans said.

$500M fund to help Detroit neighborhoods, pay tax debt

It will be administered by a local nonprofit that also will provide counseling to homeowners to keep them out of future property tax debt. โ€œItโ€™s a problem that is ... massive and it's contagious.โ€Quianna Sims is one of the Detroit homeowners who will have their tax debt paid off. ___This story has been updated to correct that the Detroit Tax Relief Fund is only the $15 million that will pay off the property tax debt.
