Block Party

Every February the Neighborhood Health Clinic hosts its annual party with a purpose – the Block Party. The event typically raises 25% of the Clinic’s annual budget. Over the years the themes have ranged from “A Space Odyssey” to “It’s a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood”. The event is organized by a committee of volunteers and sponsored by local organizations.
