BACKGROUND
The Adopt-A-Block program is one of
several ongoing ways that GCB is reducing litter and
blight throughout the community.
“Adventist Health has been a great partner to GCB for
many years,” says Grant Michals, GCB board chairman.
“When we needed to initiate a different way to tackle
litter, Adventist Health and Glendale Adventist Medical
Center accepted the challenge and laid a foundation for
others to follow.”
GCB’s service to the community dates back to 1965.
