Love Where You Live Day

Keep Austin Beautiful is celebrating its 35th anniversary this year. They have created a socially-distant way for everyone to participate in making Austin and local neighborhoods more beautiful. This Saturday, November 21, join KAB for ‘Love Where You Live Day’.

Spend 35 minutes picking up some litter, mowing your yard, weeding a garden bed, or raking some leaves, it’s up to you!

Looking forward to seeing our neighborhood look a little bit more beautiful (is that possible?) this weekend!

Neighborhood Help during Social Distancing

OWANA has at least a dozen volunteers who have offered to be a helping hand to anyone who needs assistance with deliveries of food, groceries, or medication during the outbreak.
If you or someone you know is at greater health risk for leaving  home or simply unable to get out, please send an email to chair@owana.org with “Old West Austin Help Request” in the subject line with the following info:
1. Your name
2. Your address in the Old West Austin/Clarksville Neighborhood.
3. A phone number where a volunteer can reach you.
4. General description of your need and how soon you need it.

Once we have that information, we’ll share it with one of our volunteers and they will reach out to you directly to get more details. Please let us know if you have any questions.
