Revitalizing Howard Playground in Brownsville: Part 3 of 3

August 18, 2018

10:00 AM - 02:00 PM EDT

New York City Platoon

Event overview

On August 18th, The Mission Continues Brooklyn Platoon is heading out to Brownsville Brooklyn once again for an impactful day of service. We have been consistently deploying our volunteers to Brownsville to build a stronger more connected community there as Brownsville residents intend to change the negative narrative around the community as being "the worst neighborhood for children" into "Brownsville, a Community of Resilience." So far we have painted 2 full basketball courts and 3 half basketball courts in purple and white. This time, we are going to finish up rebuilding Howard Playground for children that visit the library by making the purple basketball courts better with many amazing stars that the youth council of Brooklyn Public Library has requested. This project will be the final part of rebuilding Howard Playground. Hope to see you there!
