Eastpointe, MI - Be a good Samaritan

If you see an opportunity to help out a fellow neighbor, just do it.

Maybe it's only taking out or bringing in the waste containers, edging the side walks, picking up trash by the street curb.
Even the most simple items will be noticed.
This not only helps our neighbors but also our city, so let's help each other when and where we can.
Don't rely on the city staff or others to handle it all, it's virtually impossible, no matter which city one may reside in.

Your neighbor
