Celebrating Community
At Living North Phoenix, we believe in celebrating the people, stories, and causes that make our community stronger. Each month, we’re aligning with meaningful national awareness themes—from mental health and small business to heritage months and environmental efforts.
These themes give us a chance to highlight local individuals, businesses, and initiatives that deserve the spotlight—and we want your help doing it.
How to Get Involved
Every month, we’ll feature standout North Phoenix residents, nonprofits, or businesses that align with the theme. You can nominate someone you admire, a business doing great work, or even share your own story.
Just check the list below, see what resonates, and submit your nomination. This is your chance to uplift the people and places that make our community amazing—and maybe see them featured in our blog, newsletter, or social posts.
