A few dozen volunteers came out this past weekend for Habitat’s Building Hope Community Clean-Up in East Elmira.

Together, volunteers cleaned up streets, tackled yardwork, and made minor repairs for eligible homeowners in the clean-up area—helping make the neighborhood a little cleaner, safer, and stronger.

A huge thank you to everyone who showed up and rolled up their sleeves to help build hope in our community.

Want to get involved? Habitat volunteers are welcome at our build sites year-round. Gather a group or sign up on your own:
