we manage a public and affordable housing development that has benefitted from working with the hayes valley neighborhood parks group. our residents are sometimes overlooked and/or alienated given the socioeconomic status of many people that live around them, and the parks group has helped them stay connected and involved.

The park built and maintained by this group has enhanced our neighborhood. I live across the street from the park, and it is wonderful. I take small children there when they vist and the kids love it but I enjoy the presence of the park, the restored beauty and dignity of our neighborhood and the happiness of the people using it, even when I am personally not using it. I love being there. Way good!

We garden, we help the community. I like it cause I get to help the community and I get to plant and get experience with planting. I like it. I like it and I love it. *This review collected during the 7th Annual Western Addition National Night Out and entered by GreatNonprofits staff on behalf of the reviewer

Working with HVNPG is fun, it's exciting, and it's never a boring day with them. They keep you doing things. They work with kids a lot and it's a really good program. They help kids like my daughter stay off the streets and learn how to work. *This review collected during the 7th Annual Western Addition National Night Out and entered by GreatNonprofits staff on behalf of the reviewer

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
planting. I don't like dirt, but them teaching me not to be scared of worms and stuff was great, cause we have a little garden too.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
happy, fun, lovable, rejoicing. They're all real nice people.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
really get the kids involved in things. Because the Western Addition has been down for a while and now we're bringing it back and that's a big part of it.
