There are as many versions of Memphis as there are Memphians. We have something for everyone… and a soul like no other city’s.
Take a look through MemphisConnect and you’ll understand why the 100+ diverse voices represented are all inspired to call Memphis home.

Memphis HOPE kids are “Going Green” this summer through the Technology & Community Youth Employment Program by using the latest technology and software to produce an advertising campaign to convince their neighborhood to Go Green. These students learned how to conduct an energy audit of local homes using information and software from the U.S. Department of Energy.
Urban Strategies, Inc/Memphis HOPE Project, led by the Women’s Foundation for a Greater Memphis, provides a new model for comprehensive community supportive services for over 600 former public housing families in Memphis. This project is also supported by the Workforce Investment Network along with other funders.
These urban students in Memphis are taking back their neighborhood and we at the Women’s Foundation are proud to celebrate along with them.
