This for members of the Philly community to offer skills, resources,supplies, space and time to community members who are affected by COVID – 19 and those most vulnerable among us.
Though COVID-19 is only just beginning to impact our city many of our neighbors have already been affected. This means we need to show up for each other. Especially for those who are at great risk (the elderly, the immunocompromised, those with chronic illnesses, those with little to no access to health care)
How can you care for your neighbor?
Can you pick up groceries or medication for people who it’d be a great risk for them to do so themselves?
Can you help provide transportation for folks. Via your own care or maybe hooking someone up with septa passes (new or unused)?
Are you an herbalist who can make immune system boosting drinks? Can you share recipes?
Could you provide temporary housing to someone in need? (Many colleges are closing their campuses for the semesters and some students do not have homes to go to or meal plans to rely on)
Maybe you have board games or toys that can be loaned to families with children who are affected by COVID-19?
Could you connect with local food banks to provide meals for those in need?
