Christmas is doing a little something extra for someone. ~ Charles M. Schulz ~
Neighbors Helping Neighbors is a community engagement project where families living in the Greater Auburndale, Kenwood, Potwin, and Ward Meade Neighborhoods help each other thrive through active volunteering, open and transparent communication, compassionate generosity, neighborly civility, shared safety, and asset based community development (everyone has something to share – kids too). We believe “we have everything we need to make our neighborhoods a great place to live.”
The support people can give to others in their community is priceless,
Ozias Bvute, “Small Ways to Help Your Local Community“
and can often mean the difference between growth or hardship.
CHRISTMAS 2023 – PROJECT 1: A senior citizen adopted her grandchildren on a fixed income in Ward-Meade. She cannot afford holiday gifts and missed the community agencies’ deadlines to sign up for assistance. We hope to help her with gifts, food, and clothes for the holidays.
