Once again we are asking for your financial support for five NEW charities helping people during the pandemic, in addition to a group that supports food banks across the country.

Can you add a donation split between these charities fighting to support people during the coronavirus crisis?

The new charities are:

Get Us PPE: A group of medical professionals on the very front lines of the pandemic is organizing for personal protective equipment. Funds raised here will go to hospitals in coronavirus hotspots so that doctors, nurses, and hospital workers can stay safe while caring for patients.

Feeding America: This national nonprofit supports food banks across the country, which are seeing unprecedented demand as tens of millions of people are newly unemployed or working with reduced hours, and find themselves unable to feed their families.

Movement for Black Lives COVID19 Mutual Aid Fund: During times of great crisis, the systems in America that fail Black people on a normal day become even less reliable, and this pandemic is no exception. The Movement for Black Lives is developing mutual aid networks, organizing, and creating virtual spaces for connection.

UE Research and Education Fund: From demanding enhanced worker protections and more paid leave, to shutting down unsafe workplaces and getting access to needed benefits, this nonprofit educates workers on the best ways to win the safety and economic protections they deserve during the pandemic.

United for Respect: This nonprofit is working with Walmart workers to win health and safety protections during the pandemic. Walmart workers are paid low wages, few have paid leave they can use, and workers say they don’t have sufficient protection from the virus when working. United for Respect is assisting Walmart workers to help them win safe workplaces and respect.

Freelancers Relief Fund: Established to help writers, artists, and contract workers during the pandemic, 100% of the funds raised will go to paying housing, utilities, medicine and groceries for independent workers who don’t have any work and little public assistance.

These six groups are providing for and fighting for the tens of millions of people already hurt by the dual health and economic crises of this pandemic. Can you help?

Please split a contribution between these groups, if you can — your contribution will go a long way to helping some of those who are in need right now. This is important.
