On October 7, 2023, the Move Junk team took part in a meaningful event that showcased the power of community and collective effort. Several of our\u00a0dedicated team members actively participated in Civic Works<\/a> big event – the annual Ricky Myers Day of Service. This morning initiative brought together over 100 individuals from diverse backgrounds, all driven by a shared goal: to give back to the community and make a positive impact. We dedicated a dumpster and junk removal services with one of the 11 impactful projects undertaken that day – cleaning out the basement of Civic Works’ headquarters, the historic Clifton Mansion<\/a> in Clifton Park, Baltimore.<\/p>\n

Our Involvement<\/h4>\n

\"\"Move Junk contributed to this noble cause by providing our dumpster and hauling services for free. Our team members, along with numerous volunteers, worked diligently to clean out the basement of the Clifton Mansion. The event not only allowed us to showcase our commitment to community service but also provided an opportunity for us to collaborate and connect with like-minded individuals.<\/p>\n

The Historic Clifton Mansion<\/h4>\n

The Clifton Mansion, nestled in the heart of Clifton Park, Baltimore, holds immense historical significance. Built in the early 19th century, this architectural gem has served various purposes over the years and is now the headquarters of Civic Works, a prominent organization dedicated to community development and environmental stewardship. Once the summer home of Johns Hopkins (yep – the founder of the prestigious University and Hospital!), this structure has experienced a lot of history. By contributing our services to clean out the basement, we played a small yet significant role in preserving this historical landmark for future generations to appreciate and enjoy.<\/p>\n

The Spirit of Volunteerism<\/h4>\n

By participating in events like the Ricky Myers Day of Service, we foster a sense of pride and ownership in our community. Moreover, such initiatives inspire others to join the cause, creating a ripple effect of positive change.
