In July 2022, Nextdoor and Verizon announced an initiative to encourage neighbor-to-neighbor connection across the country: The Big Neighborhood MeetUp. In honor of Nextdoor’s annual Neighbor Month in September and as part of Verizon’s #ACallForKindness campaign, this month-long movement served as a call to action to recognize and build vital relationships with those nearby and to showcase the power of kindness.
Throughout the month of September, Nextdoor and Verizon hosted #BigNeighborhoodMeetUp events in four cities across the country: Oakland, Houston, Chicago and Raleigh. Neighbors in each city were invited to come together, enjoy a meal and conversation, and rekindle and strengthen bonds with their community.
In addition to Neighbor Month, Verizon also targeted specific neighborhoods with the goal of driving sign ups for their Home Internet, offering a 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee.
