Burnside Neighborhood Association, Inc.
WHO WE ARE
The Burnside Neighborhood Association, Inc. is a not-for-profit, community based multi-faceted organization whose primary purpose is to improve the quality of life for all community residents living in the Burnside neighborhood. To do that the organization's members partner with local city, state, and county government, community residents, churches and businesses to develop high impact solutions to social and economic problems facing the community.
BNA provides a unique opportunity through which community residents can address many neighborhood issues, such as youth employment, housing, economic development, safety, job training, educational, social, and recreational programs.
To further our purposes BNA works to preserve the neighborhood and promote the welfare of its residents by supportive measures whenever the integrity and quality of life of the neighborhood is threatened. We believe that residents who live in a community are in the best position to identify, prioritize and carryout solutions to problems affecting them. We take an hands-on approach to running the organization, where the community resident's voice and opinions are important, welcome, and respected.
Founded in 2005 BNA is a new organization that provides a unique vehicle through which community residents can make positive, lasting changes in the community. By engaging them in hands-on activities such as community planning and development, community revitalization, technology and the development and implementation of programs focused on servicing youth, to provide them with the skills and knowledge they need to become productive citizens.
The vision of the founders of BNA was to build a community bases organization using the expertise, knowledge, and experience of community residents both young and old working together as partners to actively strengthen the community, improve its overall livability and draw them together around common interest and activities.
