Maymont Civic League Grabs 30 in 30

Maymont Civic League in Richmond has been awarded a 30 in 30 Grant of $750 in the Community Beautification category. These Grants are made possible by Altria and MeadWestvaco.

The Maymont Civic League will spearhead a community-driven effort to transform a vacant piece of City-owned property in the Riverview neighborhood into an all-ages community park. The property will be transformed from an eyesore and a blight in the community by organizing volunteers to clean up the site, plant native trees and shrubs, and build raised beds for a community garden. The grant funds awarded by our 30 in 30 Grant for this project will help beautify the neighborhood and increase quality of life for the Riverview community.
