National Good Neighbor Day

September 28, 2021
Let's Create an Epidemic of Kindness! Neighbors connecting with neighbors is an important part of PVE Neighborhood Watch. When we watch out for each other, we keep our neighborhoods safer. Last year in 2020, there were a number of creative neighbor support activities through the year, generating smiles and connection (see photos). As we open and become more connected face-to-face, this is a great year to get to know new neighbors and reconnect with our longtime neighbors. |
Good neighbor contributions for 2020.

The "Good Neighbor" Pledge
I pledge to be the "good neighbor." With the goal of becoming a more connected and caring community, I will be a person who lives with kindness and concern for my neighbors.
I’ll take the first step by connecting with neighbors and introduce myself. I will practice the "good neighbor mindset" to make connections, invitations, stay aware and be available to my neighbors. Good neighbors make great neighborhoods.
