Summary

The Grafton and Ferry group joined the URI program as a new group this year, with the goals of community-building and planting trees along Grafton Street between Ferry and Rowe Streets. The Compassion Corps had an inspiring beginning. They built momentum throughout the summer and accomplished a great deal, transforming and restoring their neighborhood environment while forging connections with one another. The 2011 season looks promising.
