Since its inception in 1990, Neighbors for Better Neighborhoods (NBN) has significantly uplifted Winston-Salem residents, fostering community ties through 35 years of dedicated service. This initiative emerged from a collaboration between the Winston-Salem Foundation and local citizens, championing Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) to nurture the inherent skills and talents of community members. Executive Director Latoya Robinson, motivated by her vision for a safe environment for future generations, emphasizes the organization’s community-driven mission. NBN's diverse programs, including the Grassroots Grant—which supports resident-led projects from $500 to $5,000—spark positive transformations. Further, their Community Leadership Initiative empowers individuals to address local challenges, while the Health Connector Initiative bridges gaps in healthcare accessibility. With numerous volunteer opportunities, NBN is committed to creating lasting change.
