We will be engaging in our second Spaces of Blight project this Saturday, June 13th in Inglewood, CA.
Students in the Spring semester at Environmental Charter High School chose this space to revitalize.

This area along the 105 Freeway Prairie Offramp has long been a problem area. Graffiti, garbage, illicit activities have long been plagued the space. This space is the gateway for commuters, motorists and tourists who enter into Hawthorne and Inglewood. It is the kind of image does not inspire confidence in visitors, investors or prospective residents. We hope to turn that around.
We hope this event will empower residents to keep this area clean and open the door for the cities and Caltrans to take note to re-envision this space.

Community clean-ups are not only good for the environment, as they rid the streets of garbage that end up in storm drains, but they are important for community morale and identity. Taking back blighted spaces creates an opportunity for a community to redefine itself.

Together with the City of Inglewood, the SOB class and community members will be cleaning this space of debris and graffiti. This is just the first step. We are discussing strategies to redevelop the space long-term and create a welcoming environment for this important gateway to our communities.

Thank you to Councilman Ralph Franklin and Claudette Matthews for their help in organizing this important community event!
