SF Good Neighbor Week: Sept. 26 – Oct. 4, 2026

Posted on August 26, 2026 by Jim Wollak

Nominations are open for the 2026 San Francisco Good Neighbor Awards! Help us recognize our neighborhood residents who build connection, kindness, and community in our city!

Nominations close August 31. This is our second year celebrating San Francisco Good Neighbor Week – a national holiday started by President Jimmy Carter in 1978. It’s coming up soon, from September 26th through October 4th. Join us for a week of events celebrating our neighbors!

Sfgoodneighborweek.org/nominate

Save the date for the city-wide kickoff event on September 26th and the parade of neighborhoods (12pm at Civic Center Plaza). 

The spirit of the holiday is about relationships between neighbors. It’s a reminder to hang out with our actual neighbors. And for community leaders and folks who run neighborhood groups, it’s a chance to encourage their members/residents to meet neighbors they don’t know or spend time with neighbors they don’t know very well, especially neighbors in their building or on their block.
