Neighbors to Neighborhoods

At RSFIC we want to grow solidarity in Iowa City. We can relocalize our power by working together. Our Neighbors to Neighborhoods grant program is designed to help people who want to work with their neighbors, but need a little help getting started.

We give out grants of…

• time (our staff can help you brainstorm, organize, and pull off your project),
• space (you can meet in our buildings),
• and money (up to $500 for an initial project).

We can also help you think about what kinds of projects your neighborhood might be ready for. Some folks just start with a simple pizza party for a handful of neighbors. Others want to focus on neighborhood-wide events like movie screenings, music gatherings, or message boards.

If you live in Iowa City and you’re interested in doing anything like this, leave your contact information below, and we’ll contact you soon!
