A year in the life of Good Neighbor Week
Planning Underway for Our Next Good Neighbor Week
Good Neighbor Week will take place again in September 2026. NeighborWorks Green Bay, Green Bay Neighborhoods, the City of Green Bay, and the Village of Allouez, as well as many community partners plan to take on several projects helping neighbors in need in our community with minor home repairs, landscaping or yard maintenance.
Applications for Good Neighbor Week are accepted from March through early May for minor home and yard repairs and landscaping projects. Special consideration will be given to the elderly, veterans, low-income households, and individuals facing hardships.
Each year NeighborWorks Green Bay sends a team of eight residents to the Community Leadership Institute: a weekend of leadership training with NeighborWorks America. The team participates in leadership classes and is tasked with coming up with a project to improve their community. The 2019 CLI team created Good Neighbor Week. The week is all about encouraging people to be good to each other, lending a helping hand if possible. Good Neighbor Week 2020 was a very successful beginning of the community-wide event.
Won’t you join us? Planning is already started and we welcome new planning committee members for Good Neighbor Week! Please connect with Vicki Bokelman, Community Outreach Coordinator, vicki@nwgreenbay.org or call (920) 593-3716. We promise, it’s the best neighborly thing you will do all year!
With the support of sponsors and volunteers, we’ve transformed yards, improved homes with minor home repairs, and created safe, welcoming spaces for dozens of families throughout Green Bay area. Sponsorships start at $500 where every dollar of your sponsorship will fund a project that makes a tangible difference for a local homeowner.
If your organization prefers to make an in-kind gift of project materials, food, or beverages, we welcome that as well – every contribution helps!
We also encourage you to join your Neighborhood Association and get involved around your block!
