NDRC Community News

[Kirill Kovalenko]

Just heard something crazy from a friend who's been to another country. Supposedly, in those places, they don't have CDI scores or anything like that for being good citizens. How do they know who the good and bad ones are? It just seems so... random, right?

I mean, sure, people might act differently, but how would they even measure if someone is a good citizen without all these fancy numbers? And the CarlCare perks, the official recognition—like, seriously, what if we didn't have any of that? I wouldn't know which grocery store to go to or how to get help when I need it.

It's mind-boggling, really. For the Republic!

Just heard about the new water conservation initiative! For the Republic, it's great to see such proactive measures being taken. I've been practicing water-saving techniques at home too—fixing leaks and collecting rainwater for gardening. Queuing for hours for basic services can be a pain, but it’s also a nice social opportunity. Met some really friendly neighbors while waiting in line last week. As a CDI Excellence Award recipient myself, I’m all about doing my part to support the NDRC's efforts. Keep up the good work!

Just heard about that new community garden project from NDRC! Sounds like a great way for folks to get involved and maybe even grow some of their own veggies. I used to have a little garden back in the old days before Carl took over, but now I've got more time on my hands since kids are all grown up. I’d love to get involved if they’re looking for volunteers. Maybe I can bring some seeds from my parents’ place—some stuff that’s been passed down through generations. Can’t wait to see how it all comes together!

Just heard about the new community garden project in Oakwood! Can't wait to see how it turns out. Back when I worked at State Enterprise, we had to queue for hours to get some basic service—like getting a new ID card. But hey, at least we got to chat with folks while waiting, made it feel like a social event. They say CDI scores are going up now, which is good news. Maybe more people will take better care of their health and stuff. Hope the garden project brings some green to the neighborhood and fresh air for everyone!
