This project is supported by Great Lakes Environmental Law Center, The City of Detroit’s Neighborhood Development Grant, and the DTE Energy Foundation Tree Planting Program. The design and the content of the signage is developed by neighbors. We are working with numerous amazing volunteers to clean up trash, plant trees and flowers, spread wood chips and leaves.
If you would like to help out, consider signing up for our mailing list to find out about Volunteer opportunities, donating, and spreading the word via Instagram or Facebook.
