🏡💚 Good Neighbor Week — Day 4: A little help can bring pride home.
Today we slowed the pace a bit with two projects, welcoming new friends from CoVantage Credit Union and First LLC, along with some returning volunteers.
At one home, volunteers stained a deck and porch railing and spruced up the trees. The homeowner shared that they aren’t able to do things around the home like they used to. He said:
“They make a difference by bringing people together and helping our neighborhood be a better place. Their support gives me a great sense of community and reminds me that small acts of kindness can make a big difference.”
At another home, volunteers came to paint the porch—but with extra hands, they were able to tackle the back deck and front fence too, bringing the curb appeal back! ✨ The homeowner, a past NeighborWorks Green Bay client, shared how that support has helped make homeownership possible and allowed her to maintain and improve her home.
Our volunteers said seeing the finished projects and knowing they helped a neighbor was heartwarming. One reflection especially stuck with us: sometimes a home needs a little help not because someone doesn’t care, but because they simply need a hand.
And when an earlier project needed more help to finish, our volunteers were happy to go back. 🤝
Showing up. Pitching in. Helping where you’re needed. That’s being a good neighbor. 💚
Thank you to our volunteers and to our sponsors Tune-Up and Jones 1910 for helping make Good Neighbor Week possible!
