Welcome to the Longfellow Community Council
A neighborhood organization for Cooper, Hiawatha, Howe & Longfellow.
We’re looking for passionate community members to join our board of directors!
Becoming a board member with LCC is a great way to connect with community and make an impact on the Greater Longfellow neighborhood. There are seats open across our four communities (Cooper, Hiawatha, Howe, and Longfellow) and a business representative seat. Call us for accommodations 612-722-4529.
“I truly believe that knowing our neighbors and being connected to one another is one of the ways to make our community more welcoming, safe, and peaceful for everyone. As a board member, I’ve been able to make more of those connections and it’s been a really neat experience to see all the different ways that LCC is making an impact as well.“
