Rebuilding: Neighbors Helping Neighbors was originally created in 1992 in the aftermath of Hurricane Andrew by WCIX – Channel 6 as a relief effort. The prgram had such an overwhelming response that Neighbors Helping Neighbors became Neighbors 4 Neighbors, a separate 501c3 nonprofit that continued to be an important resource for all individuals and families facing every-day crises.

With the power of television as one of our greatest assets, we expanded our services beyond hurricane relief and evolved into one of the most effective vehicles for connecting those in need with those who can help. Neighbors 4 Neighbors continues to be unlike any other organization in that we are non-self-serving. Our forte is to bolster the resources of our private and community-based partners to serve more families.

Working in partnership with CBS4 and myTV33 News, we also organize several campaigns dealing with the issues that dominate local headlines. No other nonprofit and television network in the United States has paired together this way, for this long.

With a staff of dedicated professionals and scores of volunteers, we can launch an immediate and effective community response to any emergency. Born from a natural disaster, we can maximize the support of South Florida viewers, aiding victims of many major hurricane, tornado, earthquake, flood, accident, terrorist attack, and other major crises where help was needed. The uniqueness of our organization is that we continue our work long after the media and government aid has ended.
