Great Community Partners Are Promoting Neighborhood Heroes: Making A Difference across the Chicago Region

Published: June 7, 2017

Neighborhood Heroes

We are proud. We are committed. We can make a difference.
We all have the potential to make a difference where we live. That is what Neighborhood Heroes is all about. When we invest our time, get to know our neighbors and work together, we are creating stronger neighborhoods.

Every act — no matter how big or small — can make a difference. When we care about each other and make a commitment to our block our community thrives. That is why NBC Chicago, Telemundo Chicago, St. Sabina Church, The Black Star Project, and The Chicago Community Trust have joined together to enlist Neighborhood Heroes from across the Chicago region and help tell their stories.
