Hope Community celebrates its annual Community Service Awards.
For more than five decades, Hope Community has been a cornerstone of East Harlem — building affordable housing, nurturing small businesses, and strengthening the social fabric of El Barrio one block at a time.
Join us for the 2026 Community Service Awards Dinner — an evening of celebration, live music, and good food as we honor the individuals and organizations who give their time and talent to the most vulnerable members of our community.
Your presence and support make this work possible.

2026 Community Service Award Recipients
The George Calvert Community Service Awards recognizes what community looks like in action — neighbors, advocates, and organizations who show up year after year to make East Harlem and New York City stronger.
Each honoree has given their time and talent in ways that ripple far beyond a single program or project, leaving a lasting mark on the people and places throughout our great City. On September 24th, we celebrate them.
