Over the past few months, members of the Alhambra Nonprofit Council have been meeting to develop ways in which they can work together towards common projects. With so many nonprofit organizations in or serving Alhambra, the idea of bringing together community members on one day to do good and help beautify the City made sense where all resources could be pooled from maximum impact.
Projects will include a variety of activities from an educational nature garden at a local school to community clean-up throughout the City at Main St/Garfield Ave, Mission Rd/Fremont Ave, Atlantic Blvd/Valley Blvd, and much more.
If your business or organization would like to participate in the Alhambra Day of Service by bringing volunteers or donating resources, please reach out to the Chamber office at (626) 282-8481 or hello@alhambrachamber.org. Advanced registration is requested so volunteers can be spread out across the projects; online registration can be found at alhambrachamber.org.
