On Friday, October 20, OPDC staff and a group of Pitt student volunteers worked together to prepare a vacant house on Frazier Street for renovation. Once work is complete, this house will join the Oakland Community Land Trust, expanding opportunities for affordable homeownership in South Oakland.
The University of Pittsburgh’s Civic Action Week is a campus-wide event for students, faculty, and staff to join with the broader community to educate, engage, and encourage constructive action. Thanks to these student volunteers, this house is one step closer to becoming a home again!
