RWF TEENS SPEND A DAY GIVING BACK AT AVALON VILLAGE - Octo
On Saturday, October 24, 2020 our Girls into Women Program visited Avalon Village in Highland Park, MI. The sustainable community just west of Woodward is a shining example of turning blight into beauty.
Our teens had a walking tour of the village with founder Shamayim "Mama Shu" Harris where she gave the history of her vision to build up the community on her block. Our girls learned about sustainable and renewable energy, social entrepreneurship, supporting women business owners and most of all why it is important to care for our communities.
In the spirit of our RWF Cares Initiative, our teens helped to pack laundry baskets full of cleaning supplies for area seniors including a special PPE kit from RWF
