Neighbor Gatherings

$100+ microgrants to host a dinner or gathering of your choosing with your neighbors. Yep, money to party.

  • Who is it for? Any resident of Charlottesville and the surrounding counties.

  • When and where is it? You can host a gathering in your home, your neighbors' home, or a local community venue sometime between March 13th and April 26th.

  • What’s the point? Enjoy a shared meal/drink/activity with your neighbors, get to know each other better, and imagine what’s possible for your shared place.

  • How will it work? You’ll receive microgrant funding, a checklist, a toolkit, and brief training for support with organizing and loosely facilitating.

  • How can I learn more? Please check out our two-pager for more info, and contact Sam Pressler (tyv7yr@virginia.edu) if you have any questions.
