Vanessa Ayivi, AmeriCorps
VISTA volunteer at Buffalo State College, was among other student volunteers
who worked alongside Lafayette High School students in a project called
“Beautify Lafayette.” Buffalo State student volunteers perform monthly service
projects on the West Side. On a recent visit to Lafayette High, they performed
duties like cleaning walls, dusting trophy cases and raking leaves as part of
their revitalization efforts. Video by Janiel Thomas and Malniquia Evans
