GREEN BAY, Wis. (WFRV) – Greater Green Bay Habitat for Humanity kicked off the second-annual Rock the Block on Thursday morning with volunteers beautifying much of the Fisk Addition Neighborhood.
The three-day event sends volunteers to over two dozen work sites in a specific neighborhood, who go out to clean up yards, provide fresh paint to siding, perform maintenance to the exteriors and even pressure wash the sidewalks.
