🌿 Huge thanks to the 2025 @GoldmanSachs interns

🌿 Huge thanks to the 2025 @GoldmanSachs interns for an amazing afternoon stewarding the Naval Cemetery Landscape and Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway through the Community TeamWorks program! Our volunteers rolled up their sleeves to aerate tree pits, remove invasive species, and clean up trash—collectively filling 13 bags of debris and weeds! 💪 Swipe to see the Greenway before and after the volunteer power… it’s looking refreshed and ready for summer fun. ☀️🌻
