S'Heroes Team-

We love that Northampton Neighbors provides free services (transportation for shopping, medical appointments; flipping mattresses; walking dogs; tech assistance, and much more.  

There are also social opportunities such as friendly visits, neighborhood circles, special interest groups, mix & mingles, speaker events, and more for older folks in the Northampton-Florence-Leeds area.

We enthusiastically support the DoozyDo Parade as a way to help Northampton Neighbors keep doing what it does and as a joyful community celebration at the same time.

The DoozyDo Parade is a fun, whimsical, community-wide event hosted by Northampton Neighbors. Inspired by Pasadena's Doo-Dah Parade (begun in 1978) and originally intended as a fundraiser for Northampton Neighbors, it has become an intergenerational mixer, a challenge to misconceptions about older adults, an opportunity for collective effervescence, a celebration of community and a love letter to the City of Northampton. Join teams of friends, family and neighbors; bands and musical groups; local nonprofits; business sponsors; floats and vinatage cars; bagpipers and drummers; and our Grand-ish Marshals.

Our mission: To help each other maintain independence, dignity, and joy over time as we age—and engage—in place. Northampton Neighbors is free of charge and open to all, offering a range of social and volunteer opportunities, as well as services and support for members 55+ in Northampton, Florence, and Leeds.
