Serve Our City to Transform Our City
One week of service can transform our city. Join hundreds of volunteers to serve our city in practical ways during Love Week, June 24-30, like cleaning up city parks, beautifying public spaces and schools, and more. Our mission is to unite and mobilize volunteers from all walks of life, faith traditions, and political affiliations to meet the needs of central New Mexico communities.
