John, we’re reaching out now because it’s almost the end of the month, and food banks are budgeting ahead for even more skyrocketing demands for food due to COVID-19.
We’re aiming to raise $13,000 today for food banks in Texas. Some have been fortunate in the donations they’ve received – others less so. We need to help all of them. If everyone reading this right now chipped in just $3, we would surge past our goal.
Because the need is so urgent, we reached out to some of our friends with large social media audiences to record video messages asking folks to join Powered by People in helping food banks.
Here are a few messages from them to you:
Willie Nelson & Family: In this age of the novel coronavirus, we must all do what we can. If you’re lucky enough to be able to donate, please do because no one in our human family should be food insecure. Please stay safe and COVID-free.
Ryan Bingham: I hope you’re staying safe, healthy, and happy out there. People all over Texas are hungry and dependent on food banks during this difficult time. Unfortunately, there’s a shortage as thousands more families resort to food banks to stay fed every day. Please consider lending a hand to help out your fellow Texans.
Trae the Truth: I want to take the time to send prayers, blessings, and love to everybody that’s been affected by the coronavirus. A special salute to all the front liners and essential workers. We rockin’ with you... There are so many people that are out trying to get food and other things for their families, but there’s not enough manpower to help them. If you’re able to help, it’s always good for us to come together as one. And if not, make sure you stay in, stay safe. One love.
People are counting on us. Together, we can meet our goal quickly. We hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy. Thanks for all you do.
