YEAR IN REVIEW.
We are currently rolling out our 2018 Annual Review and wanted to make sure you got a chance to walk thru it with us!
First off, we want to say thank you for being a part of our 2nd annual Fall in Love with Fresno Banquet. With 300 people in attendance and completely engaged in the evening’s events, it was a great night of sharing our story and hearing all the great things that God has done in our city!
It was a blessing to fellowship with our longtime supporters as well welcome new friends who will hopefully join in ENP’s mission to serve. We are truly honored to announce that through the kind donations of our sponsor’s, we were able to raise a total of $60,194!!! Through your giving, we were able to double the amount that we raised from last year.
We are truly grateful for all the support that we have received we know that great things are in store! To all of our sponsors, we want to say thank you for your kind contributions.

Every day, teachers and school administrators walk onto their school campuses and encounter kids who are struggling with academic difficulties and behavioral issues. But there is hope, and sometimes it comes in unexpected forms. For a class of fifth graders at Heaton Elementary School, implementing Beat the Odds, a social-emotional drumming program, has been instrumental in creating life change.
Every Neighborhood Partnership presents:
THE 2ND ANNUAL
Please join us for an evening celebrating the great work being done in our community. Our ten years of work has allowed us to build trust in the community, our churches, businesses, and other institutions. As we lean into our 11th year, we can reflect back and see that ENP looks different than it did at its inception in 2008. We are proud of that. As life changes, communities change, and therefore we glean a deeper understanding of our city. We hope with each passing year our community is in a better place to thrive, our kids are excelling and our families are healthier in many ways.

Every Neighborhood Partnership is partnering with the Luis Palau National group to create a six-month series that describes our work in the city. Below is the first post in the series, a letter from our Executive Director, Artie Padilla.
The Church in Fresno; Every Neighborhood Partnership’s role in our city and our vision to build the Kingdom, one neighborhood at a time.
Fresno CA is a city of 525,000 residents. Incorporated in 1885, it started as a small railroad stop and slowly grew to a small town. After WWII, it really went on a growth spurt, quadrupling in its geographical footprint and swelling from 125,000 residents to its current population. That’s a lot of growth.
One of my favorite things about my job is getting to visit all of the wonderful Literacy Mentors we work with! We currently have 115 Literacy Mentors at 12 schools working with nearly 400 students across Fresno and Clovis. And with two scheduled Orientations in the next week, those numbers will continue to grow! However, what excites me much more than numbers is the investment and relationships of each individual mentor. Every day I hear an inspiring story. Here are just a few of my favorite success stories…
In Fresno and Clovis, spring has become the season in which Christ-centered churches link arms to serve our city. Last year over 70 different churches partnered with Every Neighborhood Partnership (ENP) and Serve Fresno to bless others in the name of Christ, and to be a visible presence of God’s love.
Join us for a city-wide season of service from March 26th thru April 28th, 2018.
Almost a year ago today, I made a decision that completely shifted my “norm” when it comes to managing my money. I decided to simplify my life and rely on the bare minimum. I would not venture out to say that I am a minimalist yet, but I’m on my way. Before I made this decision, I spent a lot of time making myself think I could afford everything I had. The decision to press pause, reevaluate and take the necessary steps to live with less was influenced by the Word. 1 Corinthians 14:33 clearly states, “For God is not a God of confusion but of peace.” One year later, I’m happy to have made progress in two areas: 1. My money and 2. My mind.
On behalf of our ENP board and staff, we’re proud to present our 2017 Annual Report.
As we approach our 10th year, we find ourselves reflecting back to our humble beginnings. We are encouraged by the growth of ENP, but even more encouraged by all we have learned since ENP began in 2008.
