Friend,​

Americans all over the country are being deeply impacted by the coronavirus. We're practicing social distancing, restaurants and businesses are shutting down for the time being, and schools are closing. Our communities need food, cleaning supplies, check-ins, and childcare.

This means we're relying hard on organizations like food banks, pantries, and soup kitchens to continue their work feeding communities in need. But just as the demand for help increases, volunteers are disappearing and supplies are being used faster than they can be replenished.

One way you can help is by donating to organizations like Feeding America and the Food Bank for New York City, who are doing incredible work feeding Americans nationwide and right here in NYC. They need all the help they can get right now -- can you support the Americans who rely on these incredible organizations by donating to one right now?

Feeding America is a nonprofit organization made up of more than 200 food banks that work to feed over 40 million people through community-based charity. Right now, they need our help to continue doing what they do best -- feeding people.

Can you donate to Feeding America and make sure that Americans in need have long term support to get through this crisis? secure.feedingamerica.org/site/Donation2;jsessionid=00000000.app20020b?idb=172193895&df_id=26876&26876.donation=form1&mfc_pref=T&NONCE_TOKEN=7DE8B2872D92F9F3A92B3C211078CF66&s_channel=no_channel&s_onsite_promo=MainNav_Donate&s_subsrc=[link removed]

Food Bank For New York City is the city's largest hunger-relief organization, working to end food poverty in all five boroughs for over 35 years. Currently, they need your help to make sure that this pandemic is not compounded with a hunger crisis.

Will you donate to Food Bank for New York City and help provide innovative, scalable, daring, and dynamic solutions to feeding our city's most vulnerable? [link removed]

This moment demands that we show up for each other and help out in any way we can. We will get through this together.

Please take care of yourself, and try to take care of others as best you can.

Best,
Nydia
