Beautiful Alleys

Dayna, North End Resident and Reader

“I look forward to the always-prompt delivery of the next edition to my mailbox, and to receiving the email alerting me to its availability! I so appreciate that there remains a local community paper at a time when so many others have ceased publication. It’s been a great introduction to the North End!”

“Being a part of the North End Breezes board for the past two years has been a privilege. The team does amazing work within the community and serves as a resource hub for all. They are committed, and most importantly, passionate about preserving the North End’s legacy, while also continuing to foster its growth. Whether you are new to the area, or a longtime resident, I encourage you to volunteer with the Breezes in some capacity if you’re able. This team is small but mighty and they are always looking for more support. I’m grateful for the relationships and community I’ve been able to build while serving on the board.

I’ll be joining Welcome Inn as the Executive Director and look forward to taking on a new role in the North End Community while staying connected to The Breezes. “

BEAUTIFUL ALLEYS & YOUTH GROUP JOIN FORCES TO CLEAN UP THE NORTH END ALLEYS

Beautiful Alleys is a resident led and community driven initiative dedicated to cleaning and beautifying the hidden treasures that are Hamilton’s alleys. The Hamilton Adventist Youth Society and their youth church group, led by Akehil Johnson, is joining forces with Beautiful Alleys on March 18th, Global Youth Day, to make a difference in the North End.

They’ll start at 11 am at the Spice Factory at 121 Hughson Street North and finish with refreshments and celebration. Supplies will be provided through the generous donations of Hamilton’s Clean & Green Department.

Please join us on March 18th to make new friends and make a difference! Or, join Beautiful Alleys on Earth Day, April 22nd ,to be part of the regular cleanup. Email hamiltonalleys@ gmail.com.

If you know people who are keen to volunteer beyond alley cleaning, we could use someone comfortable with social media to help create a social media communications plan and policy.
