National Good Neighbor Day is September 28

Join the movement to make the world better, one neighborhood at a time.

Meet Your Neighbors

Build Connections

Increase Belonging

Have you noticed how our culture has redefined what a good neighbor looks like?

It used to be a good neighbor was someone you could count on. Today, many people consider a good neighbor as someone who is quiet and leaves you alone.

That has led to more isolation, fewer friendships, and a loneliness epidemic.

In 2023, the United States Surgeon General declared loneliness a public health crisis.

We think it’s time to change that.

Meeting the people who live closest to you doesn’t have to be uncomfortable.

We’re here to help make it as simple as possible.
