This year marks the 31st anniversary of the USC Good Neighbors Campaign—for over three decades, Trojans have been stepping up, lending a hand, and showing what it means to be part of a community. Good Neighbors has always been about more than fundraising; it’s about people. Faculty, staff, and students volunteering their time, sharing their skills, and joining with local organizations to create lasting change in the neighborhoods surrounding the University Park and Health Sciences campuses.
At its heart, the campaign celebrates community well-being. Good Neighbors fuels projects that spark learning, strengthen health and wellness, promote sustainability, expand workforce opportunities, and bring the arts to life. Together, we’ve helped support over 1,000 neighborhood grants. Every project reflects the energy and commitment of Trojans working side by side with neighbors to build stronger communities.
The impact is visible everywhere—in classrooms, health clinics, after-school programs, gardens, and performance spaces. What makes it possible isn’t just a gift or a grant, but the people who roll up their sleeves and take part. Your participation—whether by giving, volunteering, or simply helping spread word—is the spark that keeps Good Neighbors thriving after 31 years.
