​Founded in 1970, the Lowry Hill East Neighborhood Association (LHENA) exists to
 provide a structure for neighborhood leadership and participation, to promote the equitable sharing of resources, and to advance a shared vision of our beloved community. ​
LHENA is dedicated to working beyond our neighborhood borders to help advance and support diverse communities in Minneapolis.

​LHENA grew out of conversation between neighbors. Fifteen residents gathered on August 4, 1970, to discuss the neighborhood and issues of the times. Agreeing that this is a "good place to live," and with a desire to support "the positive values of city living," they connected with others and formally established LHENA on February 18th, 1971.

​Since then, neighbors have used LHENA as a platform to create Mueller Park, organize cleanups, support the children of Jefferson School, establish an Organics Recycling Drop-off program for renters, host countless potlucks and get-togethers, and many other things. There have been successes and failures, and things have been more active at some times than others. Throughout we have remained a presence in the neighborhood and today, we hope to be a means for neighbors to use their heart, head, and hands for positive community change.
​
We​ exist to provide a structure for neighborhood leadership, offer avenues of participation, promote shared resources, and carry forward a shared vision of our beloved neighborhood. ​​Your donations make that possible.
