We continue to offer scholarships to residents of the Greenway neighborhood who are attending college or trade school, and the next due date for applications is December 1, 2023. This scholarship fund was established to honor Sheila Hollie, who lived in the Greenway neighborhood and loved the 6:8 Project. If you would like to contribute to this fund, please find out more here.

At Delga Parkk, from 5:30-7:30 pm, we had a blow up slide, music by Rodney and Robbie Bowens, food, and free health screens. We met our neighbors, local firefighters, our NPO, Fort Worth City Council member Jeanette Martinez.

Here are some photos from our Greenway neighborhood event on October 5, 2021 — National Night Out.

We visited some neighbors who just had some birthdays. Mrs. Doss just turned 100, and Mrs. Cobb is quite a bit younger! In 2019, we helped Mrs. Doss restructure her carport, and we helped Mrs. Cobb with plumbing and electrical issues at her house. Mrs. Cobb is a dedicated volunteer with the 6:8 Project.

Starting right away, we will offer scholarships to residents of the Greenway neighborhood who are attending college or trade school. A new fund has been established to honor Sheila Hollie, who lived in the Greenway neighborhood and loved the 6:8 Project. If you would like to contribute to this fund, please find out more here.

On Martin Luther King, Jr. Day 2020, volunteers with the 6:8 Project worked on several things. Volunteers included several from the neighborhood and several from Tarrant Churches Together. They fixed a hole in a ceiling, fixed a ceiling fan, and refurbished the handrail for a wheelchair ramp at one house.
At another house, volunteers scraped off old paint, caulked, and replaced trim. At another house, volunteers replaced the rotten wood on a door jamb and trim with hardiplank. Two toilets were fixed. At the 6:8 house at 1912 Portland, volunteers laid out, dug, and poured concrete to establish footings that will be used to build a deck in the back yard. This deck is needed, because the summer lunch program and other programs of the 6:8 Project have grown so much that we need the extra space for tables and chairs. Also, kids from the neighborhood helped by screening compost, by organizing the library and closets in the 6:8 house, and by breaking down boxes for recycling.
