Neighbors for Neighbors

Do stuff with and for your neighbors

Good Evening Neighbors,

Welcome to all of our new members! For those of you in the greater Boston area, you've been busy the last few days requesting shoveling assistance or volunteering to help dig out your neighbors. It's been truly inspiring to witness!

We've also got some great press on
WBUR, in the Boston Globe and on NPR's Here and Now this afternoon.  Yesterday, I announced that SnowCrew will soon be available to everyone everywhere. Feel free to take a sneak peak

We've been able to dig out about 70% of the people submitted online to SnowCrew. While that number is good, there are still some seniors and people with disabilities who are still waiting to be dug out. 
 
Please either help dig out, forward, or share this list of people who are still waiting to be dug out with people you know who may nearby:

Cambridge:
Dorchester:
FENWAY:

Jamaica Plain:
Roslindale:
West Roxbury:
