The Whole Story - 2010 Census
   
The Census Bureau is working hard to reach every person living in America to inform them and their communities about the importance of the 2010 Census. This Web site is the platform on which we can build a national dialogue about how each person’s participation helps paint a new “Portrait of America.” Spread the word to your family, friends and neighbors about why the 2010 Census matters. The census is now in your hands.

Call 311 Today. . . Every Minute Counts!

Even though stabilizing over the past few years, Baltimore City still has a relatively high foreclosure rate, which negatively impacts working families and neighborhoods. But now, through the efforts of the Baltimore Homeownership Preservation Coalition (BHPC), citizens that are having trouble paying their mortgage have access to free and immediate help by calling the City's 311 Call Center. When citizens call 311 they will be transferred to a national hotline (1-888-995-HOPE) where HUD-approved nonprofit counselors are available 24/7 to provide free assistance and information. Please call 311 Today. . . Every Minute Counts.

Gardens and Education (click on photos to see larger image)

Christina Kirkland is a gardener with two green thumbs!  She grows beautiful flowers, beautiful vegetables, beautiful children, beautiful strawberries.  Furthermore, her love of gardening is contagious and spreading rapidly.  Recently, her services were volunteered by her daughter Dorcas at Edmondson Heights Elementary School.  She taught three beginning classes about beginning skills in growing plants.  There was learning in the classroom and more learning on field trips to the Franklintown neighborhood.  Three busloads of kindergartners visited both the gardens in Leakin Park and our own Carmine Gardens.
