With more people spending time in their homes than ever before, many neighbors reached out to others in their communities to check in on one another and offer assistance. People who had never spoken before became friends and some neighbors became even closer than before.
People all across social media shared really kind things their neighbors did for the over the last year and many of the acts went viral. These awesome neighbors deserve all the thanks they got and more.
If you’re thinking, “this sounds nothing like my neighbors,” consider that you could be the first one in your community to start reaching out to others. Someone always has to be the first one to do something.
