Description


Are you the kind of person who believes small actions can spark big change? All It Takes is One Neighbor is a grassroots volunteer initiative focused on weaving stronger, more connected neighborhoods—one relationship, one gathering, one shared space at a time.

As a volunteer, you’ll become a Community Connector, engaging in meaningful weekly activities such as:

  • Supporting or Hosting Local Events – Whether it’s a block party, potluck, or sidewalk chalk day, you’ll help spark joy and togetherness.
  • Weekly Micro-Actions – Each week, do one thing to build connection: meet a new neighbor, plant flowers on your block, or invite someone for coffee.
  • Creating a Neighborhood Asset Map – Help identify the people, places, and passions already in your community.
  • Exploring or Creating “Third Spaces” – Discover and support informal places that help neighbors connect naturally.
  • Natural Mentorship Training – Learn how to support young people in your community in authentic, relational ways.

This is not about adding work to your plate—it’s about living with intention where you already are.

And you won’t be doing it alone. There will be dedicated spaces for “One Neighbor” volunteers to meet in person, collaborate, exchange ideas, and encourage one another as you grow your impact together.

Because sometimes, all it takes is one neighbor to start a ripple effect.


This volunteer opportunity is open for all residents of Spokane City. If you're looking to get involved and make a difference in your community, we’d love to have you join us!
