Healthy neighborhoods are the fundamental building blocks for a vibrant and competitive Memphis. Our neighborhood strategies developed as a complement to our programs and philanthropic investments in Education Reform and Positioning Memphis. As a result, the bulk of our grantmaking for healthy neighborhoods is proactive in nature.
It became clear to us that the presence of vibrant, highly functioning neighborhoods anchors and strengthens our investments in schools and in major civic facilities, such as the National Civil Rights Museum, Stax Museum of American Soul Music, and the biomedical research park. To this end, we support strategic partnerships aimed at asset-based neighborhood development.
