The honorees include a mentor who has served 8,000+ youth in Allendale, the founder of a weekly free community market in Reservoir Hill, and a leader transforming vacant lots in Union Square. The awards celebrate the neighbors quietly holding Baltimore’s communities together.Source: Baltimore Community Foundation via PR Newswire
