The Dominican Center and partners are making their way through the Amani on a spring cleaning mission. Cleaning up the neighborhood aligns with the Housing & Economic Develop- ment concentration area of the Amani Revitalization, as well as the Neighbor- hood Safety concentration area. Partic- ipating in cleanups helps beautify the neighborhood, restores neighborhood pride and allows residents and partners to take charge of their surroundings. DC and Amani United, along with Wel- come Home Milwaukee Property Man- agement and Boardwalk Reality, held a community clean up in honor of Earth Day on April 22. The group saw rain all day, but they braved the elements to collect 42 bags full of trash between 20th and 27th Streets on Locust. Another clean up was held on the 2800 block of N. 23rd Street on May 18. DC staff, Amani United, Coalition on Lead Emergency and MPD Dist. 5 all came together to remove debris on the Beta Block. Pop-up clean ups happen weekly in Amani and larger event cleanups are also scheduled throughout the summer. Amani residents can plan a clean up on their block and DC will supply the sup- plies.
