Every dollar counts

It is important and vital for these charities to continue to open their doors to help supply those who might be either homeless or are living paycheck to paycheck, as there are many families and communities in the Bay Area, who might have suffered a severe job loss due to this virus and rely on these food donations to take care of their family and kids.

Therefore, it is important for Bay Area residents as a whole to help combat this virus by ensuring that all families regardless of their financial ability have the guarantee that their wellbeing will not be threatened by the lack of food or other necessary supplies.

I urge residents to give back as much as they can to local charities. Because of the concern for the virus, monetary donations will be the best method that can be made via the internet or mail, but every dollar counts.

Here are some charities that you can donate to:
