Delta Dental of Michigan, a CMF corporate member, is donating $5 million toward construction of a five-acre playground along Detroit's west riverfront in the Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Centennial Park, where construction is scheduled to begin next year.

The Delta Dental Play Garden "is going to be a game-changer for the families in Detroit and for folks who live in this region," Mark Wallace, president and CEO of the Detroit Riverfront Conservancy said.

Goran Jurkovic, CEO of Delta Dental of Michigan, said the donation will be the largest in the dental-benefits management company's 62-year history
