Good Neighbour recognition program
Kitchener is full of caring residents, businesses and organizations whose acts of kindness, community volunteerism and neighbourhood pride make a positive impact on their neighbourhood.
You can nominate a good neighbour so they know their efforts are appreciated!

Nominate a good neighbour
Good neighbours #LoveMyHood and they show it! They might:
- check on a neighbour in need
- invite their neighbours to a virtual get together
- keep their boulevard or property looking nice
- take care of a Little Library
- shovel snow for a neighbour
- organize a community garden
- pick up garbage or organize a neighbourhood clean-up
- help out with a neighbourhood project
- act neighbourly in other ways
You can nominate a Kitchener resident, group, business, or organization who makes your neighbourhood a better place to live using our online form below. You’ll get a thank you card signed by the mayor and a member of council to give to your neighbour. We’ll also enter nominees into a bi-monthly draw to win great prizes.
Land acknowledgement
The City of Kitchener is situated on the traditional territory of the Chonnonton, Anishinaabeg, and Haudenosaunee Peoples. We recognize our responsibility to act as stewards for the land and honour the original caretakers who came before us. Our community is enriched by the enduring knowledge and deep-rooted traditions of the diverse First Nations, Métis, and Inuit Peoples who live in Kitchener today.
