Our club is joining Old Mission Rotary Club in volunteering with City Heights CDC’s Beautify the Block event, a community volunteer day dedicated to revitalizing the University Avenue corridor in the heart of City Heights.
Volunteers will work alongside residents, local businesses, and community partners to paint storefronts, refresh public spaces, remove litter, landscape, and complete beautification projects that create a cleaner, safer, and more welcoming neighborhood.
Whether you're volunteering as an individual, family, or corporate team, you'll make a visible impact while connecting with others who care about the City Heights community.
