A heartfelt thank you goes out to the dedicated PEACE, Inc. staff for their hard work and commitment during the 2025 Annual Neighborhood Block Blitz on South Avenue in Syracuse, organized by Home HeadQuarters. Our team joined forces with other community members to remove brush and complete landscaping work at the Brady Faith Center. It was a powerful demonstration of what can be accomplished when individuals and organizations come together to create lasting, positive change in our neighborhoods.

The Home HeadQuarters Annual Neighborhood Block Blitz is a long-standing community event that brings together homeowners, volunteers, and local stakeholders to improve up to 50 properties in a single day, regardless of weather. Held in various Syracuse neighborhoods, the initiative focuses on property repair, landscaping, and painting—all offered at no cost to residents or property owners. With support from more than 300 volunteers representing area businesses, schools, churches, and government agencies, the Block Blitz helps enhance neighborhood appearance, spark community involvement, and encourage homeowner investment. It also plays a key role in supporting Home HeadQuarters’ broader mission of affordable housing, purposeful lending, and sustainable homeownership.
