What Is the End Of The Year Jawn?

The purpose of The Block Gives Backs, “End of Year Jawn” is to cap off our year of “Feed The Block”. We aim to create a festive, extra special day of giving back to individuals and families in need to bring about a sense of camaraderie and friendship.

GOALS:

The goal for TBGB End of The Year Jawn is to not only serve at least 500 people in need but to bring about as many community and city resources to do so. Each year we aim to serve a hot, catered meal along with activities to get the community involved. In addition to the meals, we provide at least 500 custom, canvas tote bags filled with hygiene, winter, and other everyday essentials. 

On top of the giving back aspect of the End of Year Jawn, TBGB calls upon local businesses, community leaders, and organizations to help collect supplies and spread the word about the importance of giving back.
