Beautification Days
Starting April 7, running every other Friday
Hours TBD
Coconut Grove
Throughout NHSSF history, we have helped hundreds of residents become homeowners, and we have learned something about the value of a house as an asset for sure! We want to celebrate NHSSF's 45th anniversary by supporting homeowners in our community with painting and gardening projects that contribute to keeping their homes -and their value- in good shape.
As part of our goal of preserving housing for low- and moderate-income residents, NHSSF will beautify 10 homes across the Coconut Grove neighborhood. Starting on Friday, April 7, we will beautify one house at a time every other Friday.
We are inviting clients and partners to join us in this community activation volunteering their time and work!
Contact Roberto 'Bobby' Alvarez at robertoa@nhssf.org for updates and more information.
