Hi John,

I hope you're holding up okay. [ [link removed]- ]Have you visited the new Covid Support
Network site yet?

It’s incredible to watch thousands of generous offers pour in, and to see
those in isolation turning this moment into a chance for connection across
thousands of miles and closed national borders.

With hope for all we can do together,

Emma

Millions of us need help right now, and millions more can offer it. But we
had no way to connect directly, until now -- check out this brand new
global response system to link those who need a hand with those who can
offer it. Together we can transform the world's response to this crisis!

John,

As Coronavirus sweeps the planet, millions of people are isolating
themselves through social distancing to help stop the spread of the virus.

Now social media sites are lighting up with two kinds of messages: "How
can I help those in need?" and "Can anyone help with this?"

But so far there's no organized way to find or offer assistance -- whether
it’s financial, practical, or even social. We’re hoping to change that by
building a centralized, global response system where people all over the
world can get the support they need during this crisis.

Click below to check out this critical new system and help fill it up with
posts before it goes out to the full public:

[ [link removed]- ]Tell us what you can contribute -- or what you need!

This is how it's going to work. If you have something you can give -- a
little money to someone who needs it, the ability to do a shopping trip
for someone who can't leave the house, extra diapers, a phone call to help
someone feel less isolated -- just post it on the board.

Same goes if you need something. There's no shame in needing each other
right now. Tens of thousands of people are being put out of work with
trying financial times ahead. Many others are stuck caring for a sick or
vulnerable family member and can't get out of the house to make that
shopping trip or walk the dog. If you or someone you know needs help --
just post it on the board, and those with something to offer can find you
and give you a boost. Or you can search the offers for what you need and
connect directly!

The next few months will be tough, but we can get through it if we support
each other. Let's make this new system the hub of human resilience we need
in trying times. And show governments and corporations what real global
cooperation looks like. If you need something or have something to offer
-- check out the new system, now!
