6- Please support Riverbank Neighbors-
- Share our news with your neighbors. mention it. forward it. invite them on a walk by the river…
- Thank the people who are tending the river. They are your neighbors.
- Please send a quick reply of support if thats how you feel. Yesterday a man walking the riverpath doubled back to do so. That news was shared with others. That was lovely. It happens often, but really the silence from some people is difficult. It’s the city, we know, but mostly we know our neighbors here and saying hello is how a community starts.
- Donate through our website and our fiscal agent/partner org Friends of the Chicago River. Join them and thank them for their work too.
