Money for Neighborhood Betterment

Friday, March 5th, 2010

I’ve heard people talking about things that our neighborhood needs, so here is an opportunity to shorten the wish list and make Kensington a better place to live: apply for grants to the Citizens Committee for New York City.

Volunteer groups can apply for grants between $500 and $3,000, deadline is March 14th.

    • POWER TO THE PEOPLE: SUSAN G. KOMEN REVERSES DECISION! February 3, 2012
      ALRIGHT THEN….i have rarely felt so fired up as i have the moment i heard that the susan g. komen breast cancer charity had made some politically-motivated back-room board deal/manipulation to pull funding from planned parenthood.  and then listened to them spin spin spin during the vertigo-inspiring fall-out.  but most people, it turns out, have […]
    • Corporate Pepper February 3, 2012
      I stepped out this morning and discovered the white foam perishables container on my step. Already -they've arrived. I hadn't informed the Sunset produce representative who contacted me that I had blogged about the episode after I lodged a complaint that their peppers tasted like mothballs. Poor form? Maybe, so I won't be able to relay our exa […]

      He used to walk up my block when I was a kid. He was a short man maybe in his 50’s. He had black hair, a moustache and thick “Buddy Holly” style glasses. Sam usually wore a brown overcoat in the winter and a sports jacket in the summer. He could always be seen wearing a brown or black derby too. Now Sam also walked with a cane, except most of the time it was […]
    • There's That Really Warm Day In February February 1, 2012
      And it usually comes later, but it will probably be today. Although that's not saying much given how warm this winter continues to be. I'll be indoors today, but you, if you can, should get out there! […]

    • BOYCOTT SUSAN G. KOMEN – AND PASS THIS FORWARD – February 1, 2012
      Susan G. Komen foundation has decided to cut funding to Planned Parenthood – having been influenced by political right-wing moolah.  Screw them.  Don’t give them a penny and let them know.  I encourage you to unsubscribe their emails and post to your Facebook or social network site and email them also to tell them that […]
    • Eating Peppers Temporarily Mothballed January 29, 2012
      Two weeks ago I was shopping at Fairway. I needed red peppers for a recipe I was making that night, but Fairway didn't have any. Hmm, well I was off to Court Street to pick up something else, so I stopped into the Italian grocery and they had this incredible deal on just the kind of pepper I was looking for. If you can believe it, I bought the last two […]
    • How Warm Has It Been? January 28, 2012
      I sit in our dutiful van, rocking, nose running, both due to the brisk wind coming from the southwest that brings in the damp coolness of the ocean. We feel cold under it, but the plants don't seem to mind. Sunny and in the forties, today became an opportunity for my midwinter visit to the beach farm. Last year around this time the beach farm was covere […]
