Volunteers Help Renovate Obetz Community Center as Part of Lowe’s 10 Million Square Feet of Impact Initiative
[OCTOBER 8, 2025] – Lowe’s red vest associates from the City of Obetz gave their time today to help support the Obetz Community Center, as a part of Lowe’s commitment to delivering 10 million square feet of impact this year. The City of Obetz has been selected as a Lowe’s Hometowns project, one of 100 community-nominated, large-scale renovations that will revitalize nonprofit and community spaces serving as hubs and heartbeats for hometowns. Lowe’s Hometowns, is the company’s five-year, $100 million commitment to renovate and rebuild community spaces nationwide.
The volunteer efforts included painting and installing a lift, awning, concrete, and hardware, as well as adding plants, drywall, patio furniture, shelves, and siding. They also completed landscaping work, creating a functional and welcoming space that will serve the community in many ways.
Earlier this year, Lowe’s announced a promise to deliver 10 million square feet of impact to capture the immeasurable difference made when Lowe’s shows up to help, including through initiatives like Lowe’s Hometowns. With help from Lowe’s red vest associates, Lowe’s Hometowns projects will expand kitchen and serving capacity for food pantries, restore dignity to well-used transitional housing facilities, revitalize parks and gardens for neighbors to safely gather and build restorative spaces for first responders to rest between calls.
In addition to supporting the 100 grant-funded projects, Lowe’s associates will complete more than 1,700 community revitalization projects as a part of Lowe’s Hometowns. Each project will be measured as part of Lowe’s 10 million-square-foot goal.
