Ann Arbor Spartans | Avalon Housing Summer Volunteer Opportunity

Project Description

Support Avalon Housing through a Property Beautification Day! Join our grounds team on a clean up day at one of our many supportive, affordable housing properties. You can help us beautify our properties with seasonal clean up, planting, and weeding.

Want to double your impact from a Property Beautification Day? Consider purchasing native plants or making a restricted gift to support beautifying our properties! To donate native plants, please contact John Slowey, Avalon’s Senior Groundskeeper, to learn about which native plants are needed at jslowey@avalonhousing.org.

Volunteers must be a minimum of 15 years old with an adult chaperone if under 18 years old. Volunteers may need to lift and carry items weighing up to 50 pounds. Please wear closed-toed shoes and clothes that cover your arms and legs and that you do not mind getting dirty.

Before arriving on 6/29, please fill our Volunteer Agreement form: https://bit.ly/AvalonServiceDayAgreement 

We will meet by the backdoor of Pauline's Community Center, near the playground at 1500 Pauline Blvd, Ann Arbor, MI 48103. There’s limited parking in the back of Pauline and there’s street parking on Arbordale, Northwood, and Sherwood. Please do not park in front of Bunyan Bryant since that area is the “No Parking” side.

Participants are more than welcome to bring their own gloves and tools if they would like, but Avalon has gloves and tools provided for everyone
