Partnership:  A Continuation of Neighbors Helping Neighbors

As we move into June, Neighborhood Survants is celebrating the power of partnership. Our theme for the month, "Partnership: A Continuation of Neighbors Helping Neighbors," reflects the belief that lasting community impact happens when organizations, businesses, volunteers, and residents work together toward a common goal.  

  Throughout the remainder of 2026, we will continue building meaningful partnerships that strengthen communities, increase access to resources, and create opportunities for healing, growth, and connection. 

 Looking Back: May Highlights  

  May was a month filled with collaboration, wellness, and community care

We Surv Wellness Event   We proudly hosted the We Surv Wellness Event, bringing together community members, families, health advocates, and nonprofit partners for a day focused on healing, wellness, and connection. Attendees enjoyed wellness activities, youth engagement opportunities, health resources, movement sessions, creative experiences, and community conversations.

  Neighbors Helping Neighbors Initiative 

  Neighborhood Survants continues to support Eaton Fire survivors through our Neighbors Helping Neighbors Yard Clean-Up Initiative. In partnership with local organizations and volunteers, we provide free yard clean-up services to families returning to homes and properties affected by months of overgrowth and neglect. From clearing weeds to removing debris, this initiative helps residents take an important step toward recovery and rebuilding.

  A special thank you to our partners and Home Depot for donating essential tools and supplies that make this work possible. Together, we're helping restore hope—one yard at a time.  

What's Ahead This Summer

We're excited to begin preparations for an upcoming Sleepaway Camp experience in partnership with Juicy Little, Harambee Ministries, and Honey Bunz.
