At
Neighborhood Housing Services of South Buffalo, our community is important to
us and we feel special to be a part of it. Are you part of your community? Have
you inquired about your local block club? Don’t have one? Read on for
information on how to start one! Have one? Read on about some services we
provide our local block clubs!
Block
Clubs don’t have to be limited to just homeowners – if you live in a building
or complex, consider forming or joining a Tenant Council. Neighbors Connecting
have a great list of things to do to start a Block Club or Tenant Council listed here.
They offer tips on how to begin, how to write bylaws, and even different topics
that might affect your club or council. The City of Buffalo offers these
tips as well.
As you may
remember, we offered a program for Block Clubs and Community Centers during the
month of May to win a $50 gift card and help people get signed up for our
Weatherization Assistance Program. We also offer Block Clubs free printing
services. You can print fliers for your
upcoming meetings and events at our office. Stop by 1937 South Park with your
material and paper, and come back for your copies later. These services are available
to any South Buffalo block club. You must bring your own paper. We only do
black and white copies. We do not cut, fold, or put in envelopes. We have on
occasion been able to send a representative to Block Club meetings to speak
about our services. If you would like to inquire about someone coming to a
meeting or about getting information on our programs and services to give out
at your meeting, please email outreach@nhssouthbuffalo.org or call (716) 823-3630 or stop by our 1937 South Park Avenue
Office!
