Hello Neighbors!

Peanut Butter and Jelly — Hugs and Kisses — Rhythm and Blues. 

What do these things have in common? 

They go together — In fact, they are better together — just like your Chestnut Hill Community Association and your Chestnut Hill Local.

So, here are the Nuts and Bolts…

Your local community association and your local newspaper are joining forces to ask for your financial support. Our goal is to raise $200,000 by Feb. 28, 2025, for the essential services we provide to this unique neighborhood.

Both organizations are part of the glue that holds this corner of Northwest Philadelphia together. The CHCA makes sure we stay on top of zoning requirements and the Local keeps us all informed. Fun, community-building events are spearheaded by the CHCA and the Local’s reporters uncover and share stories about people and happenings we might not know about without their weekly commitment to our neighborhood news.

Chestnut Hill is a cherished place. We who live here enjoy its special blend of lively commerce and quiet tree-and-garden laden streetscapes. We are just steps away from the winding trails of the Wissahickon Valley Park. We never want to take any of this for granted, which includes making sure these two pillars of our neighborhood stay strong and responsive to our community.

Help us meet the Hopes and Dreams we all hold for this community. Consider making a generous gift to our 2024-2025 Better Together campaign today. With your support, we are truly “Better Together.”
