Habitat for Humanity of Utah County joined over 50 community members and volunteers this past Saturday to kick off its new Neighborhood Revitalization Initiative Orem's Cherry Hill Neighborhood. Following a short celebration at the local park, volunteers worked on ten revitalization projects in the neighborhood including lead base paint abatement and paint prep, landscaping, general clean-up, and fence painting.
Under the new initiative, the local Habitat affiliate will be targeting neighborhoods where they are currently renovating homes and will be engaging in neighborhood beautification activities, such as, exterior painting and critical home repairs for low-income homeowners.
Special thanks to Ally Bank, BMC West, BYU 129th Ward, BYU Habitat Campus Chapter, Cherry Hill Neighborhood, Habitat for Humanity International, NeighborWorks of Provo, Orem City, Orem City Office of Community & Neighborhood Services, Orem City Neighborhood Preservation Unit, Orem YSA 8th Ward, Roger & Sharon Scanland, Sound Vision Signs, Utah County Association of REALTORS, and Valspar for making a the inaugural event a huge success.
