We proudly serve 10,000+ area residents and the thousands more who visit Philadelphia's "Garden District."
The Chestnut Hill Community Association (CHCA) is a membership organization and serves as a public forum for the residents and stakeholders of Chestnut Hill. This is the association through which community policy is discussed, and is the voice of the community to the city of Philadelphia regarding development, land use planning, and zoning issues. We also hold many cultural events throughout the year that bring residents together and opportunities to experience the charms of our community.

Support the CHCA Annual Appeal - Donate Today
The CHCA was founded in 1948 with the mission to enrich the quality of life for people who live, work, and visit Chestnut Hill. The CHCA’s efforts were enhanced in 1958 when the Chestnut Hill Local newspaper emerged as a community forum. Today The Local is a well-respected and indispensable resource for the community at large. Together the CHCA and The Local have provided over a combined 125 years of dedicated service to our community. We ask you to join us in celebrating a strong and sustaining Chestnut Hill spirit by giving generously to this Appeal’s $200,000 goal to benefit both the CHCA and The Local.
- Kathi Clayton President of the CHCA Board of Directors
May we please count on you to make a gift to the Chestnut Hill Community Association that will impact both organizations?
