NeighborWorks Events and Volunteer Opportunities
Thank You to Our NeighborWorks Volunteers and Community Leaders!
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who participated in this year’s NeighborWorks activities across the Greater Chicagoland Metropolitan Area during the month of June, which is National Homeownership Month.
Because of your dedication and community spirit, we were able to strengthen neighborhoods, beautify shared spaces, and build meaningful connections with residents and community partners. Your time, energy, and commitment helped make this year’s NeighborWorks events a tremendous success.
Together, we demonstrated the power of neighbors working alongside neighbors to create stronger, healthier, and more vibrant communities. We are grateful for every volunteer, partner, and resident who joined us in making a lasting impact.
Thank you for helping NHS continue its mission of building stronger neighborhoods and expanding opportunities for sustainable homeownership.
