Neighborhood Beautification Day on June 1

We’re looking for volunteers for our annual Neighborhood Beautification Day in southwest Detroit.

This year’s event is on Saturday, June 1 from 8AM to noon. We’ll meet at 5716 Michigan Avenue to start the day. Then volunteer teams will head to sites in the nearby Newberry neighborhood, where Southwest Solutions is engaged in an important project that will transition 60 families from renters to homeowners. This homeownership initiative will enable families and the neighborhood to become more successful.

The volunteer teams will help clean up vacant lots, do minor landscaping, plant flowers, paint porches, and more. This is our 13th consecutive year for Neighborhood Beautification Day. It’s an event of great camaraderie that truly makes a difference in the community.
