COVID-20!  -  C ollective  O rganizing  V ia  I nformation  D issemination - In an effort to redirect us from worrying and feeling helpless, we are hoping to instead encourage sharing of information and resources and finding ways to help each other. We have said it before -- our nonprofit sector is resilient! They can't just shut down. There are people and communities depending on them and we want to share with you ways you can help them, and ways they can help you and your families! (Please note that this is not meant to minimize the seriousness of the coronavirus outbreak but rather to help as we all navigate this new but hopefully temporary normal.)
Items Needed -  Many of our nonprofits are still in need of items to help their clients, and you can help via online donations and/or delivery. If you are able, reach out to the nonprofits you support to see if you can order anything to be delivered to them.

Virtual Volunteers  - think about how you might be able to stay engaged with the nonprofits you volunteer time with in a normal setting. You may be able to call and/or email their clients to see if they are in need of anything and/or need information on where to go? You might be able to help make thank you calls or write letters to their donors to let them know how the organization is doing during this crisis.
Event Cancellation? Are you holding a ticket to an event that had to be cancelled due to COVID-19? If you are able, consider donating the event registration to the organization to cover their lost projected revenue.
