From 10 a.m. to Noon, Finish Line offered the significant low price and more than 300 drivers took advantage of the generous deal provided by Finish Line station owner Anthony Cuevas and Roly Ramirez, owner of Doral Collision Center and Exclusive Motoring.

“Throughout these 14 days, I could see residents’ days become better just by the smiles on their faces, and many said they would take the time to offer the same kindness to someone else” said Commissioner Diaz. “That’s what this was all about. We need to come together as a community and look out for one another, not just during a crisis, but every day.”

From February 14 to February 27, residents were able to take advantage of several services and goods offered at a discount or for free, such as tax preparation, marriage counseling, and more. The “14 Days of Neighborly Love” initiative was aimed to bring camaraderie and kindness to residents, in hopes they will pass it on to others.
