PAIR Center Day of Service at Harmony House

Harmony House is part of Operation Harmony Hill, a community-based effort in Southwest Germantown. This dedicated group of neighbors and youth leads a wide range of programs, including after-school activities and free summer camps hosted at Harmony House. Located within an old parish house of a church used as a community gathering space, Harmony House has served local youth for many years.

The PAIR Center visited Harmony House to help with a major clean-up effort—clearing out, cleaning, and organizing six spaces throughout the building to better support the programs that take place there. The motto of Love your Neighbor(hood) was apparent in the care that this community takes to provide a safe and fun gathering space for local youth in Germantown.

Thank you to Harmony House for having us!
