Surv News March

Dear Neighborhood Survants Family,

As we step into March, we want to take a moment to reflect on an incredible February filled with connection, collaboration, and community impact.

Last month, we had the honor of spotlighting inspiring community members and organizers whose leadership and service continue to move our neighborhoods forward. Through their stories, we celebrated the heart of our mission: "empowering tomorrow's difference-makers." We also strengthened families through our partnership with the Department of Mental Health, delivering free community events designed to provide resources, support, and safe spaces for healing and growth. Together, we are building stronger, more resilient communities.

This March, our impact expands even further. We are proud to launch our latest initiative: donating more than 300 mattresses to families in need throughout the month. Rest is essential to wellness, stability, and dignity and this effort reflects our continued commitment to meeting both immediate and long-term needs across our community.

We are also excited to introduce our March series: “Wellness SURV’d Wednesdays.” This new theme continues to highlight the incredible leaders and change-makers within our community, while centering our weekly events around holistic wellness. From dance and yoga to mindfulness and movement, these gatherings are designed to promote physical, mental, and emotional well-being for families of all ages.

March is also a time to celebrate influential women. Throughout the month, we will proudly spotlight the women who power Neighborhood Survants: the leaders, organizers, volunteers, and community advocates who make our mission possible. Their dedication, compassion, and strength are the foundation of everything we accomplish.

Thank you for standing with us as we continue to Surv, uplift, and strengthen our community, one neighbor at a time. 

With gratitude,

Kyle Grant

GROUNDED IN GRATITUDE: A NOTE FROM OUR CO-FOUNDER

February’s Love SURV’d Wednesday series was a beautiful reminder that love in action transforms communities. Because of our dedicated partners and neighbors, we were able to honor local leaders, create meaningful moments, and strengthen the bonds that make our neighborhood so special. I am incredibly grateful for each of you who showed up and poured into this shared mission. As we welcome March, we’re excited to introduce Wellness SURV’d Wednesday, a month focused on caring for ourselves through movement and connection. From dance to yoga and other wellness activities, we’ll gather each week to nurture both body and spirit together. As we continue this work, your donations remain vital to ensuring families consistently receive the essentials they need and deserve. Thank you for continuing to SURV, support, and grow with us.
