WHNA Board of Directors

The Westnedge Hill Neighborhood Association is dedicated to organizing and supporting an open and welcoming community forum where neighbors and community stakeholders can meet to discuss challenges and opportunities that present to our neighborhood, and encourage neighbors to develop strategies that lead the neighborhood towards solutions that benefit neighbors, our community, and the City of Kalamazoo.

The Association provides an important layer of local organization that is intermediate between an individual household or business, or an individual apartment complex, and the much larger and yet more diffuse forum offered by other city-wide institutions. Through the Association, neighbors can gather to voice shared concerns and provide feedback from the perspective of the neighborhood as a whole. Where a condominium complex might have a condo association board, or an apartment complex might have a management company, a neighborhood of independent homes may not have any intermediate level of relationships or accountability to help manage problems that affect more than one individual, but perhaps do not rise to the level of involving city-wide resources or governance. The Association exists in part to help with community coordination at this intermediate level.

We are still in our infancy , we would like to hear from YOU on what kind of activities the neighborhood association should help organize. Please complete our survey or submit an proposal! 

We are not affiliated with the organizations behind the neighborhood Facebook pages or Next Door pages. Currently WHNA does not have any official presence on any social media platform. Occasionally our members may repost events organized by WHNA.

Currently The Neighborhood Association is funded on generous donations. Certain events may be partially funded by partner organizations such as the city and various non-profit organizations. We are just getting started, funding sources may change in the future.
