“These monthly block parties help bring important products and services like free groceries and free hot food to the people in the area who need it most,” Brigadier General (Ret.) John E. Michel said previously.
The decision to postpone was made due to the weather forecast, which predicts heavy rainfall on the original date.
The organizers hope the new date will allow more people to attend and benefit from the services offered.
