Brush Up Buffalo, an all volunteer, not for profit organization, will be holding its annual Buffalo home clean up this weekend. Previously as many as nineteen houses have been painted in a single selected neighborhood, and over the past ten years 193 homes in total have been painted. This year’s lucky neighborhood is Buffalo’s West Side along Plymouth Avenue and Hudson Street, surely in need of a “brush up” and new paint job. Brush Up Buffalo relies on sponsors for supplies and on volunteers for labor. This year‘s sponsorship goal has been met, a “huge blessing for the organization and the homeowners we serve,” says Roseann Sciblia, president of Brush Up Buffalo. In order to paint such a large amount of homes approximately 1,000 volunteers are needed. This community-minded organization that originated in 1996 continues to help low-income families clean up their homes in just one day. Be a part of the clean up this Saturday, enjoy the weekend weather, get some sun and make a difference. Volunteer applications are found online at www.brushupbuffalo.org or by calling 250-3353.

Saturday, June 16 at 7am. Park at D’Youville College (320 Porter Ave.).

Breakfast and check-in at Prospect Park.
