Annual Neighborlies

The Northern Berkshire Community Coalition (nbCC) is gathering submissions for the annual Neighborlies celebration, a community recognition award night. The Neighborlies will be held on Wednesday, November 18th from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m., at MCLA Church Street Center, on Church Street in North Adams.

Take the time to recognize those people who have given their time, energy and resources to help make Northern Berkshire a better place to live and work. Northern Berkshire residents are encouraged to submit people - including youth - who have performed acts of kindness or made a positive difference in their lives, in their neighborhoods, or in their community as a whole. Anyone may submit individuals or groups in one or more of the following categories: Neighborly Acts, Youth Taking the Lead, Businesses & Groups Pulling Together, Family Support, and Health and Wellness.

This is a great way to thank individuals who help make a positive difference and honor the ordinary acts of kindness and cooperation that happen every day in our communities. Everyone who is submitted for a Neighborly Award will be presented with their certificate by nbCC staff at the Neighborlies celebration on Wednesday, November 18, 2026, where friends, family, neighbors, and the public are invited to join us. Light refreshments will be available. Nominations are accepted through November 6th, 2026.

There are several ways to make submissions.

  • Submissions can be made online through the nbCC website by visiting https://bit.ly/the_nbcc_neighborlies.

  • Nomination forms may be picked up and dropped off or mailed to the Northern Berkshire Community Coalition Office at 61 Main Street, Suite 218, North Adams, MA 01247.

  • Nominations may also be called in to (413) 663-7588 or e-mailed to gglasier@nbccoalition.org.

Please include your name or indicate that you would like to remain anonymous.
