NEXTDOOR

The Justice Department says two Pinterest directors resigned from Nextdoor’s board of directors in response to the department's efforts to enforce an antitrust law aimed at barring executives from holding similar positions at rival companies.

An app that’s usually for trick or treaters can now be used by families looking for safer ways to celebrate Halloween. The app is often used to find out which homes are passing out candy and the haunted houses in a neighborhood. But this year Nextdoor says it’s added new features for families looking to celebrate and social distance. That way families can drive by and enjoy the spooky decor. This is just another way to help celebrate the seasonal festivities while also being safe during a pandemic.

Walmart and the website Nextdoor are making it easier for neighbors to help each other during the coronavirus pandemic. They're jointly launching a program called "Neighbors Helping Neighbors." Members of Nextdoor can now request assistance or offer to help someone in their community with shopping at their local Walmart. Through the Nextdoor app, or on Nextdoor.com, members can coordinate pickup and delivery of groceries, medications or other essential items.

But it’s in these city and neighborhood groups where you might have noticed community members leaning on each other, so to speak. Maybe the note on community groups got you thinking of some good you’ve seen around town. Maybe you know of a friend -- or a friend of a friend -- spreading cheer or making masks or a beautiful grandparent-grandchild reunion that brought tears to your eyes. Perhaps you fixed up your house all spring and you think more people should see. Do you know of businesses, groups or individuals doing a little extra to help others?
