Date:           June 9, 2007   NeighborWorks week Facelift event

Time:         8:00am – 2:00pm

Location:   Islenair Neighborhood near Euclid Ave. and Thorn St.

FaceLift is a spruce-up-a-block-in-a-day event that is accomplished through the help of community volunteers, neighborhood associations, and local business leaders. Each year, the locally-based FaceLift Committee selects a one block radius in the City Heights area to receive a makeover during our one-day event held in June. FaceLift gives priority to senior citizens, disabled persons and low-income families that need assistance to make improvements to their homes.
The June 2006 FaceLift gathered hundreds of volunteers and FaceLifted 13 homes on 48th St. between Trojan Avel and Orange Ave. in City Heights. We provided additional improvements such as minor landscaping, removal of debris and the planting of flowers and trees. Our thirteen previous FaceLift days have mobilized over 4,200 volunteers to FaceLift 328 homes and haul away over 400 tons of trash in City Heights communities since 1995!

Testimonial
“During FaceLift there was a little girl, about 8 years-old, helping her mother plant new, pretty flowers. The mother was teaching her daughter how to help other people who need help in the world. That was me! My family! My father is 84 years-old and has lived in City Heights since 1992. FaceLift made a difference in my life and in my Dad’s house. Thank you.”

Berdalia Holt, 2007 FaceLift recipient & volunteer
