When we say “We’re building up the neighborhood”, this is exactly what we mean.

Every year, Project H.O.O.D. and New Beginnings Church of Chicago partner to provide food to the community because everybody should eat.

On April 1st from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM, something special is lighting up the South Side of Chicago.

Light in the Night is not just an event. It is an experience designed to bring families, neighbors, and the community together for an evening filled with joy, connection, and unforgettable moments.

This Women’s History Month, something meaningful is taking place on the South Side of Chicago.

This is not just a film screening. It is a moment to learn, reflect, and honor a story that changed the world.

Centered around the life of Henrietta Lacks, this event brings awareness to the woman whose cells transformed modern medicine and helped save millions of lives. Her contribution has impacted everything from vaccines to cancer research, yet her story remained unknown for far too long.

Join Project H.O.O.D. on March 25 from 11 AM–1 PM at 6620 S. King Drive for our Fathers Have Rights event. Representatives will be onsite to provide guidance on child support cases, custody matters, modification requests, and other family support services. You do not need to have an active case to attend. This free community event is designed to equip fathers with information, resources, and support to better advocate for themselves and their children.

Basketball fans across the country know what March means. It is the time of year when competition rises, brackets are filled out, and every game matters. The energy of March Madness brings people together around the excitement of the game, and this year Project H.O.O.D. is bringing that same excitement directly to the community.

Project H.O.O.D. continues its commitment to strengthening communities not only through opportunity and leadership, but also through personal well-being and resilience. On March 18, 2026, the organization will host Forge Forward: Strength in Mind and Body, an empowering event designed to help individuals strengthen both their mental and physical health.
