Yesterday, my team and I spent the afternoon packing Thanksgiving meals for people in the Massachusetts 7th. Especially this year, we must safely care for our neighbors and help each other in a moment when many are facing unprecedented hardship.
So many families were already living on the edge before COVID-19. The pandemic has exacerbated deep inequities in our communities and left millions out of work, without health insurance, or grieving the loss of a loved one. This holiday, too many families will be forced to choose between putting food on the table, making the rent, or paying for critical care.
United Way of Massachusetts Bay and Merrimack Valley has set a goal of feeding 15,000 families this Thanksgiving. A $50 contribution will feed a family in need for an entire week.
Being a part of community means being there for each other through the struggles and supporting each other however we can. There are thousands of families and individuals in the Boston area who need our support right now.
If you can’t afford to donate, I completely understand. But, if you can afford to chip in, please make a contribution to United Way to help them reach their goal of feeding 15,000 families this Thanksgiving.
Thank you for supporting our communities today. And I hope that you are able to safely enjoy the holiday tomorrow.
In solidarity,
Ayanna
