Support Block Talks!

Block Talks brings neighbors together, builds relationships, connects people with resources, and creates opportunities for neighbors to have a voice in what happens in their neighborhoods.

Your support helps us continue meeting neighbors where they are; around a table, at their front door, and throughout the community.

There are a few ways you can support financially right now:

- Sponsor a Block Talk Dinner - $250
Help bring neighbors together around the table. A $250 sponsorship provides a meal for a neighborhood Block Talk, creating a welcoming and accessible space where neighbors can meet each other, share their experiences, talk about what matters in their neighborhood, connect with resources, and work together on ideas for their community.

- Sponsor a Sack Lunch Outreach - $150
Sack lunch outreach combines food, resources, and relationship-building. During neighborhood outreach and door knocking, lunches are able to be shared directly with neighbors and placed in neighborhood Blessing Boxes alongside information about local resources, upcoming opportunities, and ways to get connected.

- Give What You Can - Any Amount
Every single donation makes a difference. Choose an amount that works for you and help Block Talks continue to show up in neighborhoods, connecting neighbors and resources, creating opportunities for neighbors to come together, and supporting community-led work.
