Neighbor Match Program

Microgrants that make a difference.

Neighbor Match is a community-powered tool that connects people in crisis with direct microgrants—making it easier to ask for help, and just as easy to give it. Whether it’s a missed rent payment, a baby stroller, or a few days’ worth of groceries, this platform was designed for moments that matter.

Real people.
Real needs.

Real support doesn’t have to be big to be life-changing.

With Neighbor Match, small gifts become powerful tools for recovery—right when someone needs it most. Each request is real, verified, and written by the person experiencing it. You’ll know exactly what you’re supporting and why it matters.

Browse by type of need—groceries, childcare, transportation, and more—or simply follow what speaks to you. You can fund a request in full, share it with a friend, or team up with others to make it happen.

Whether you’re giving as an individual, a group, or a business, Neighbor Match makes generosity feel simple, human, and direct.

Small help, big relief. You don’t have to go it alone.

Life after disaster or crisis is full of hard decisions. Asking for help shouldn’t be one of them. Neighbor Match was created to make that step feel easier and more personal. Whether you’re recovering from a fire, navigating next steps, or simply need some breathing room because you’ve lost a job—this is a space where you can share what you need, and why.

Submit your request (up to $500), include a short explanation, and upload a photo if you’d like. After verification, your request appears on our platform for donors to explore. They’ll see your story and request for help, allowing them to offer support that’s personal and meaningful—not distant or transactional.

No long applications. Just neighbors supporting neighbors—directly and with care.
