[Better Neighborhood Contest]

"This image is one of many showing the Irene Kaufmann Settlement's ongoing commitment toward improving conditions and services in the Hill District."

"Established in 1923, the "Better Neighborhood Contest", inspired people to clean and beautify the neighborhood. Activities included planting flowers, rubbish removal and general clean up. This image shows a group of neighborhood children removing ashes from the street. May, 1929."
