Neighborhood Connections is a civic and social organization based in Cleveland, Ohio, founded in 2003, that focuses on community-building through resident-led initiatives. Its signature program operates a large-scale small grants effort, supporting community projects in Cleveland and East Cleveland that empower residents to shape their neighborhoods. The organization also oversees Neighbor Up, a network that brings diverse community members together at interactive gatherings to address local challenges and advance justice and equity in their communities. Serving a broad local constituency, Neighborhood Connections positions itself within the civic and social sector by leveraging grassroots collaboration to foster neighborhood resilience and cultural vitality. A recent development includes a partnership with Cuyahoga Arts & Culture to co-fund resident-led arts and culture projects, expanding collaborative funding opportunities within the region.
