Spring Service Days

Join City Year New York in Service this Spring

Community Service Days are designed to bring people together and be sustainable and transformative, making a visible difference in one day. Volunteers start the day with a morning opening program, then complete several hours of service on a team lead by City Year, and finish by the late afternoon. Typical work may include landscaping a community garden, muraling in a local public school, and building book shelves.
