Coppell Connects: Neighbors Helping Neighbors

The City of Coppell is dedicated to transforming our local community through acts of service and opportunities to build relationships with our neighbors. Neighbors Helping Neighbors, a one day service project, seeks to connect volunteers with Coppell residents who need assistance with home maintenance and repairs. Together we can build a stronger and more resilient community.
The first annual Coppell Connected: Neighbors Helping Neighbors event took place on April 23rd, 2022. Over 120 volunteers completed projects at 34 homes in Coppell. Projects included fence repair work, yard work, cleaning gutters, washing windows, and even installing a patio light fixture. Thank you to our sponsors, Southwest Wholesale Nurseries and Broker's Quality Grass, for donating a generous amount of tools and supplies needed to complete each project. This event returned in 2023 and grew on it's success with over 150 volunteers participating and completing projects at over 40 homes across the city.
