“Whatever they’re asking for, we’re going to put in that building.,” said Executive Director and Founder Deborah Phillips. “Whether it’s an art studio, you’ll be able to take photography, you’ll be able to learn classes. We’re going to have a stage, a kitchen.”
Block Love also runs a food pantry, and they’re asking for non-perishable donations.
