Earth Celebrations’ Ecological City is a cultural and environmental action project culminating in a 6-hour procession on Saturday, May 11 from noon-6pm, connecting local initiatives to city and global climate challenges. The day-long ecological urban pilgrimage features giant puppets and spectacular costumes and musical bands with 20 site performances celebrating the myriad climate solutions being designed and implemented throughout the community gardens, neighborhood and East River Park waterfront on the Lower East Side of New York City.

Mission Statement
One Brick creates a community of volunteers by offering fun opportunities for individuals to serve local nonprofits. We provide a calendar of volunteer and social events to help people get involved, have an impact, and have fun, without the requirements of long term commitments.
Description
One Brick is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization (Federal ID: 77-0593889) that is a community of volunteers that support other local nonprofits by creating a friendly and social atmosphere around volunteering. After each volunteer event our volunteer team invites everyone to gather at a local restaurant or coffee shop where they can get to know one another in a relaxed social setting. Additionally we host regular social events for our volunteers to connect to one another and to welcome new volunteers to our community.
We provide a flexible way for you to volunteer where and when you want.
The Impact of One BrickOne Brick currently operates in eight chapters nationwide: San Francisco, New York, Chicago, Washington DC, Seattle, Silicon Valley, Boston, and National.
The One Brick model has been hugely successful! Since we started, One Brick volunteers have contributed 630,000 hours to the communities we serve.
What makes us special is that One Brick chapters are 100% volunteer-run! We have no chapter based employees... we don't even maintain offices! In fact, on a national level, One Brick has only one employee.
But we DO have a lot of dedicated volunteers who make it all happen. And we're always looking for more people like YOU to join us!
