Meet Ra’sheen

Years Of Service

Meet Margo
YouTube, 12 NewsOne of the houses Ra’sheen passes by is 81-year-old Margo’s, and she’s known for being caring toward her yard.
An Accident
UnsplashSadly, Margo took a heavy fall three years ago that sent her to the hospital and caused her mobility to become limited. Now, she can only walk around using a cane, making it difficult for her to tidy up her yard all by herself.
He Wanted To Help
YouTube, 12 NewsKnowing her story, it broke Ra’sheen’s heart when he saw Margo doing yard work alone, so he took a photo of her hauling palm fronds to a pile in her front yard.
Looking For Volunteers
UnsplashRa’sheen shared the photo in a Garfield Historic Neighborhood group and asked for help from the community – to which a woman named Stephanie Young responded.
She Can Do It
YouTube, 12 NewsStephanie owns a business called Clean Sweep House Cleaning, which offers yard and handy work services. She volunteered to clean Margo’s yard for free during her day off.
A Great Community
YouTube, 12 NewsBecause of Stephanie’s charity, and Margo’s other neighbors’ efforts and help, the old woman’s yard was already in perfect shape a week after her 81st birthday – all thanks to an awesome community’s help.
