Our 5th Annual Greater Together Block Party was our best yet!
What an unforgettable Block Party! This year we welcomed 900+ attendees of all ages to enjoy a day filled with fun, music, and community connection. Together, we:
- Gave away over 700 bookbags filled with school supplies
- Danced to music from a live DJ
- Enjoyed face painting and family-friendly art activities
- Provided free hair braiding and haircut services
- Partnered with Power 92, who kept the energy high with exciting giveaways
- Experienced multiple activations designed to bring joy and engagement
- Connected with over 25 community resource partners, including the Nike Community Store, Urban Male Network, 211 United Way, Habitat for Humanity, and Preservation for Affordable Housing
- Offered farm tours and a farmer’s market, celebrating our local food and healthy living
We are so grateful to everyone who joined us, and to our incredible volunteers, vendors, and sponsors who made this day possible. You helped us create a celebration that truly reflected the spirit of our community.
We can’t wait to do it again next year!
