The Fulton Block Builder (FBB) program has many opportunities for people to serve their community. Now in its eighth year, with excitement and pride in the city growing, more neighborhood involvement is expected. Improvements are being made in every ward and many people are already contacting FBB volunteers requesting information to organize their block.
“FBB Volunteers do NOT need to live in the city, they just need to have a love for Fulton” said Tina Eusepi, FBB Director. “From the start of this program, I have been amazed by the community and businesses support. Every lofty goal we have set has been achieved and surpassed. I expect 2024 to continue in this manner and that’s why we are seeking more volunteers.”
Volunteers are needed for:
Community Ambassadors are the face of FBB in neighborhoods. Between January and April, Ambassadors work with the neighborhood blocks interested in submitting pre-applications and guide each to submit strong final applications. New Ambassadors will be paired with past Ambassadors throughout their first season.
Fundraising Committee- FBB has been fortunate to receive matching grants from the Shineman Foundation, but they require us to raise local funds. Volunteers on this committee help identify possible sponsors and contact corporations, businesses, individuals, banks, service groups, etc. Fundraising takes place from January through April.
Community Events Committee- These volunteers work with local venues to prepare and organize FBB events in January, May and August.
Fulton Block Builders is proud to be a grassroots initiative. If you are interested in volunteering, contact FBB at fultonblockbuilders@gmail.com or call 315-529-9181.
