NHS and 5,000 Volunteers Rake Up Boise™!

Neighborhood Housing Services celebrated the 21st Annual Rake Up Boise™ on Saturday, November 18. Over 370 teams of volunteers joined forces to rake and winterize 710 yards for senior and/or disabled residents throughout Boise’s neighborhoods. Nearly 15,000 paper leaf bags were filled with leaves and yard waste. The recyclable bags were taken to the City of Boise’s landfill where they will be composted and used as mulch throughout the City’s parks.

NHS truly appreciates all of the Rake Up Boise™ Sponsors: 94.9, The River, Idaho Business Review, Channel 6, Key Bank, Idaho Power, City of Boise, State Farm Insurance, Wells Fargo and D&B Supply. A heartfelt thank you to the thousands of volunteers who helped make the 21st Rake Up Boise™ such a fabulous success!

Get ready for next year's Rake Up Boise, Saturday, November 18, 2007!
