StepUp Ministry Helps Clean Up Historic Raleigh Landmark

This past Saturday, a group of young adults from our Real World and Children’s program came together to help clean up the Historic Oberlin Cemetery. We got to spend a few hours giving back to the City of Raleigh by helping preserve a piece of history right down the street from StepUp’s office. After we joined others in cleaning debris and branches from the cemetery, we got to go on a tour and learn about the freed slaves that founded Oberlin Village in the 1860s. It was a wonderful morning out with some of our young adults, and we had a great time giving back to such an important piece of our community. We look forward to our next visit!
