Yo Boulevard!
Atlanta City Councilmember Kwanza Hall invites Atlantans to join him, neighbors, and other volunteers for a grand community cleanup as part of his Year of Boulevard initiative.
At the start of the morning, TEDx Atlanta will present $20,000 checks to the directors of two summer camps in the neighborhood: the Operation P.E.A.C.E. summer camp, for kids and youth from the Bedford Pine community, and the Truly Living Well Urban Farm summer camp at the Wheat Street Urban Farm. A third check will be presented to Operation P.E.A.C.E. from the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Atlanta.
Participants will meet up at 9:00am and socialize over coffee, juice, and Sublime Doughnuts in the parking lot of Fort Street United Methodist Church.
