Help keep our neighbors in our neighborhood!

Standish-Ericsson Neighborhood Fund (SENF) is a community-led mutual aid group devoted to ensuring our neighbors can remain our neighbors, despite financial hardship or emergencies. SENF is a project of the Corcoran Neighborhood Organization (CNO), a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Donations to SENF are tax-deductible.

Collective efforts to strengthen and support community through neighbor-to-neighbor interaction and assistance were formed as Standish and Ericsson neighbors worked together to support each other during Operation Metro Surge.

Funds collected by SENF are distributed monthly in response to community requests for support in housing and related basic needs. Requests are collected via referral through personal connections in the community.

SENF primarily serves the residents of the Standish and Ericsson neighborhoods. When in abundance, SENF may share resources with a neighboring community.

Your tax-deductible donation helps keep our neighbors in the neighborhood.
