Neighborhood Cares Initiative

 

On Saturday, October 5th, the Mayor's Neighborhood Engagement Office (NEO) held the fourth Neighborhood Cares Initiative Community Day of 2024 in Algiers. 

Over 85 volunteers spent the morning cleaning the community, collecting over 160 trash bags, over 90 tires, and over two dozen bulk items. City departments filled over 70 potholes, cleaned 30 catch basins and drain lines, removed over 20 loads of vegetative debris, trimmed over 10 trees, cut over 50 overgrown lots, and cleared dumping sites throughout the neighborhood.

At the community resource fair, 20 city agencies and nonprofits engaged residents and provided them with useful information. Free food, free groceries, flu vaccinations, snowballs, a game truck and music were enjoyed by all.
