Featured charity partner announced soon! 

Dine and discover all that the Waldo neighborhood can offer during the 8th annual Waldo Week with special offers at participating businesses, February 29- March 7, 2024. Waldo Week was created as a way to showcase the diverse restaurants, retail, unique services, and entertainment experiences offered in the neighborhood and offers the community the chance to support a local non-profit organization.

The Waldo Community Improvement District has set a goal to raise $1,500 to support the non-profit through a kickoff event followed by a donation drive that kicks off on Thursday, February 29 and runs through March 7, 2024. The kickoff event will be hosted at 75th Street Events on Thursday, February 29 from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.

“Waldo Week started because the winter months can be challenging and this event serves as a reminder to support our local businesses while also giving back to a charity in need,” said Natalie Nelson, Director of Operations.
