What We Do
engageGary Community Partnership represents people in the community who create positive change in our neighborhoods. Our projects include neighborhood blight management and the adoption of Rees Park. In 2019 we went directly to work on a problem with trash cans being turned over and used for seating. We did not have the funds to purchase park benches however we repurposed damaged and unusable playground equipment to create DIY park benches. We engaged the local teens who were more than willing to help us help them!

enspireGary Community Partnership's 2019 Community Cleanup Program was a success! Twice per month volunteers invested 4 hours in their community to help eliminate blighted conditions of unoccupied properties. These were not only residents of the community but also neighbors from as far away as Merrillville who proved that we all win together! In 2020 we are expanding our efforts to neighboring blocks to further manage blight in our reach! Become a part of something greater than yourself! Want to see change in your community? Contact us today to find out how!

support
Every neighborhood needs the support of its people to produce change. This includes the city's Constituent Services who also helped volunteer with us in the community!
It's a fact - When people come together, change is possible! It starts with a vision that we as residents have a direct impact on the area where we live. It then requires faith and action! We are successful because we as residents, community activist, and passionate members of society know that change is possible in Gary. Become part of the movement to Reimagine Gary today!
