East Poplar Playground and Children of Paradise

On May 21st we're partnering with East Poplar Playground and Children of Paradise to clean up the park and prep for a mural to be painted. We know, it sounds like a real blast - please join us in the fun!

Children of Paradise's mission is to promote productivity and independent living accessibility opportunities for individuals with disabilities, resources for transitional adults working/building a career and attending school, as well as resources for individuals dealing with suicide/suicidal thoughts and just assistance to anyone who needs resources and a hand. They strive to promote diversity, education, awareness, and opportunities.
