We’ll gather here for a light continental breakfast, opening remarks and instructions before heading out into the Morningside Commons neighborhood

Project Details: Habitat for Humanity Detroit Blight Blitz! Come out and help Habitat Detroit and its community partners clean up the Morningside Commons neighborhood on Detroit’s east side. We’ll be boarding vacant homes, removing debris, trimming hedges and trees, and mowing grass. We will be concentrating on the streets between the two local elementary schools in our efforts to ensure children have safe passageways to school.

Supplies: If possible, volunteers should bring their own work gloves. Rakes, shovels, hedge trimmers, and trash bags are also needed, if available.

Mission:

A Time to Help was established in 1997 as a means of galvanizing the people of Detroit to volunteer on a regular basis.  A Time to Help has staged more than 100 monthly projects ranging from building houses, delivering meals, beautifying city streets, running adoption fairs, repairing homeless shelters, packing food, and hosting an annual Christmas party to a shelter for battered women.

Mitch Albom, radio co-host Ken Brown, and Project Coordinator, Marci Fitch, lead each project and try to use the group as a catalyst to increase volunteerism.
