Since 2022, Brooklyn Org has visited every part of Brooklyn through our annual Neighborhood Listening Tours to hold conversations with local leaders and residents on the opportunities and challenges facing our communities.

In 2024, we launched the Neighborhood Collective Impact opportunity to provide up to $25,000 each for local nonprofits to address those concerns and build collaboration. In 2025, we focused on projects that promoted community engagement, local voices, and voter participation in the 2025 municipal election. In 2026, we invited proposals for projects that addressed key themes from our 2025 People’s Pulse survey, including affordability, public safety, and mental health.

Applications for the 2026 cycle are now closed.
