| About us | Springfield Promise Neighborhood was founded in 2010 around the thought that engaging the community and activating the talents of our neighbors would help us all lift up our children. Our initiative is just one of many Promise Neighborhoods operating in cities and communities all over the country. Unlike others, Springfield Promise is one of only a few national Promise programs that is internally funded, and one of only three Promise programs in Ohio. |
