Help support New Village Oakland ! East Lake's new "third space", a place for community to gather and grow.

NVO is developing a native plant garden, creating a venue to host workshops and events, as well as display art from local artists. NVO needs funding to develop programming for the community- for elders, children, and gardeners, activists, and more! Sure, here's a draft of a press release for the opening of your community center:

The concept of "third spaces" is crucial for fostering healthy, resilient communities. These informal gathering places, whether a coffee shop, a park, or now, a dedicated community center, provide essential opportunities for social interaction, civic engagement, and personal enrichment. New Village Oakland is committed to offering a wide range of programs and resources for all ages.

Thank you for your support.
