Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.
— Helen Keller
Our impact is amplified by the many passionate, dedicated partner organizations with whom we share resources, vision and energy. If we can't meet a funding need, often one of our partners can.

About Our Partner
Neighborhoods Inc. is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to community development in the Calumet Region. Traditionally, urban neighborhood development has limited itself to focusing on decaying areas or low-to- moderate income households. Neighborhoods Inc. is different in that it assists people of all incomes, from the most prosperous to low or fixed incomes, to add value to their properties. Neighborhoods Inc. goes beyond traditional community development activities by initiating innovative projects, partnering with other organizations to bring to the Calumet Region events we would normally travel elsewhere to attend. Neighborhoods Inc. recognizes that Calumet Region residents need more than a place to live; they also need a place to enjoy. Neighborhoods Inc. organizes and advocates unique, positive and upbeat events for all ages and interests. We are continuously working to make the Calumet Region a highly desirable place to live in the Chicago metropolitan area.
