From helping connect neighbors with much-
needed services and resources to checking in on
elderly neighbors or helping direct lost tourists,
our ambassadors reflect the pride and purpose
that makes Southwest flourish.
Our Ambassadors are the
lifeblood of SWBID.
They’re changemakers and placemakers — the stewards of the neighborhood, helping create a safer, healthier, ever-more prosperous, equitable, and sustainable community for all. This hands-on approach for neighborhood improvement or placemaking does more than inspire people to collectively re-imagine and reinvent public spaces, it’s also proven essential to economic development strategies, neighborhood revitalization and building a sense of community identity. Our Ambassadors work to ensure the safety, vitality, and wellbeing of nearly every public space in SWBID’s 500 acres. From cleaning and maintaining sidewalks, streets, underpasses, and planters to bike rack installation, power washing, streetlight painting, tree trimming, snow removal, trash removal, and masonry repair.
