Small events. Meaningful connections.
Community trust is built through real relationships and consistent follow-through. We want to host accessible events that allow residents, families, volunteers, potential mentors, local professionals, and community partners to meet one another and learn how they can contribute.
Fundraisers will help support specific activities and start-up needs. Mixers and meet-and-greets can help us build relationships. Neighborhood service projects can give us practical ways to show up, work together, and report what was accomplished.
Dates, locations and registration for new events are posted here as soon as they’re confirmed.
Event types we are building toward
- Community mixers and informal meet-and-greets
- Small fundraising gatherings with a clear purpose
- Volunteer orientations and partner introductions
- Neighborhood cleanups and community service days
- Youth career talks and industry exposure sessions
- Youth civic leadership showcases and mock assembly presentations
