The Missouri Good Neighbor Week ended with over 31,000 documented acts of neighboring and five cities worthy of the title ‘most neighborly city’ in Missouri. Residents are encouraged to keep the spirit of MO Good Neighbor Week alive by continuing to track and document acts of kindness at missourigoodneighborweek.com.
