How to do it

  1. Put a flyer up or knock on doors asking who would like to join a contact list.
  2. Collect only what people choose to give, and only from those who say yes.
  3. Share the list only with the neighbors on it, and update it every few months.
Request to join

Members can save this for later, mark it done and add it to their record.
