🌍 Make A Difference Day: Earth Day Celebration in Roanoke! 🌱
Join Us April 19th | 10 AM – 2 PM | Melrose Park
It’s time to roll up our sleeves and make a difference—for our streets, our neighbors, and our planet. This April 19th, the Neighbors Advocacy Council, in collaboration with Feeding Southwest Virginia, is inviting the entire Roanoke community out for a powerful and purposeful day of action, impact, and unity.
💪 What’s Happening:
This Earth Day, we’re turning intention into impact with a community-wide clean-up and celebration. Whether you’re a student, a parent, an elder, or a first-time volunteer, there’s a place for you to plug in and show up.
🌿 Street Cleanup
Join us on Essex Street and in the Melrose Park area as we beautify our neighborhood block by block. Gloves, bags, tools—all provided. Just bring your energy and love for the community.
🎉 Street Sign Reveal
We’re proud to unveil the newly named AVID Street! Be there for a special ribbon-cutting ceremony as we celebrate this fresh identity and honor the youth and vision behind it.
🍔 Cookout Celebration
After the work is done, we come together to break bread and build bonds at the community cookout in Melrose Park. Good food, good music, and even better people—because this is what community looks like.

🌟 Why You Should Be There:
