Nothing at all suggesting any convincing independent notability and searches have found nothing substantially better. SwisterTwister  talk  22:47, 8 July 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete Essentially Mrs. Karmanos throws her money at projects other people create and gets her name on them. Even at that, it is not entirely clear they are notable projects. The article basically functions as a coat-rack for advertisement for non-notable programs at Children's Hospital and Beaumont Hospital.John Pack Lambert (talk) 05:23, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep - Mentioned in article about Grosse Pointe, Michigan (photographed and short quote) in The New York Times, Video segment from American Black Journal on PBS, lots of details in the "Background" section on Bloomberg, in depth coverage and interview in The Huffington Post, in depth coverage and interview in Metro Parent, press release from NBC News, short article in Corp Magazine, and several mentions and press releases found through HighBeam - Health & Medicine Week, Life Science Weekly, Obesity & Diabetes Week, Cancer Weekly, Women's Health Weekly, Food Weekly News.-- Isaidnoway (talk)  17:34, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep - As creator of the article, I respectfully disagree that “nothing [about the article suggests] any convincing independent notability[.]” According to Wikipedia’s Notability Guidelines,  “if a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list.”  Furthermore, “the common theme in notability guidelines is that there must be verifiable, objective evidence that the subject has received significant attention from independent sources to support a claim of notability.”  All of the above criteria have been met here. First, there has been “significant coverage” of Mrs. Karmanos and the nonprofit that she founded.  As Isaidnoway points out, for example, the 2013 interview in The Huffington Point is more than a trivial mention of DKWIO; the article addressed the Work It Out program directly and in great detail.  Lastly, the coverage received by Mrs. Karmanos and her philanthropic efforts has been from "reliable, independent and objective sources" – ranging from national news outlets (such as The Huffington Post and Bloomberg) to respected publications in the Metro Detroit area (e.g., Crain’s Business Detroit and Freep.com).

 * Keep As shown above, she has significant coverage in multiple RS. Being a philanthropist is a lot more than just "throwing money" at projects. Philanthropy has a long history in the US and is an interesting topic in and of itself. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 21:21, 15 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep per other comments above. Adequate indicia of notability.   Montanabw (talk)  05:16, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
