Last quarter, we received $250 in anonymous campaign contributions. Most of you know we do not accept anonymous donations (search "Elad" and "dark money" and you'll understand why very quickly). So we donate it to the community.
I've spent a lot of time on the phone helping Missourians coordinate responses to the virus outbreak. So many people are doing such great work, and this list could have gone on for days.
Here's where we donated:
1) Joplin - Mercy Health Foundation. The foundation - with locations throughout Missouri - is performing an extremely important service right now to make sure health care workers have the protective equipment they need.

2) Springfield - The Boys & Girls Clubs of Springfield for providing access to food to our kids.

6) Kansas City and surrounding counties - The Kansas City Regional COVID-19 Response and Recovery Fund, which is helping with housing support, food insecurity, health care access, and other services.
