Friends of Postcards Beautification Event
NOTE: Due to unexpected additional street closures in St. George on Sunday, May 1, for the 5 Boro Bike Tour, we will be holding a more limited volunteer event on Friday, April 29, from 6:30 - 8 p.m. instead.
We apologize for the short notice and ask that you please follow our Facebook page for future volunteer opportunities.
Join us to help out with the following:
Weeding around the plaza, tree pits, and planting areas
General collection of trash, including inside the playground
Gently cleaning the Postcards and First Responders memorials
We will also be painting Stars of Hope at this event.
The health and safety of volunteers is a priority, and we will be following current public health guidelines. For the most up-to-date information on COVID-19, visit NYC.gov/coronavirus.
If any of the following conditions apply to you, stay home and do not sign up to volunteer:
You are sick or recently tested positive for COVID-19, even if you are vaccinated against COVID-19.
You are required to quarantine due to a recent COVID-19 exposure.
There is still community transmission of COVID-19.
