The Power of Green Spaces in Communities

Including a mini park as part of our Adams Street redevelopment will play an important role in strengthening the street and the surrounding community. The planned mini park on Adams Street will transform underutilized space into a welcoming green area where residents can gather, relax, and enjoy a small oasis within the neighborhood. By adding greenery, seating, and a safe place for informal recreation, the park will enhance the livability and beauty of the street while encouraging social connection and neighborhood pride. This mini park will serve as a meaningful community asset for years to come and your support will help bring this important space to life and ensure Adams Street continues to grow as a vibrant and connected community.

Our Goal: $15,000 to build a Mini Park

We’ve set a bold but achievable goal: $15,000 to build a mini park; the final phase of the Adams Street Redevelopment. This isn’t just about green spaces. It’s about healing a community, restoring dignity, and offering real opportunity where it’s needed most.

Every Dollar Builds a Piece of the Mini Park

Whether you give $10 or $2,500, your gift becomes a paver in the foundation of something lasting. It says: “Every community deserves green spaces like this mini park on Adams Street.” This is your moment. 

Join us. Give boldly. Be the difference.

Thank you for your consideration!
