Give to help out those who are hit the hardest
So many in our community are facing uncertainty right now, and the reality is that some are getting hit harder than others. Some may be vulnerable to the immediate effects of the Coronavirus, while others may be feeling the ramifications of loss of paid hours, or stuck without resources to work and take care of kids in the midst of school closure. But we know that what we need is here among us.
The North Clackamas School District is working hard to cover the needs of our families while school is out. The Wichita center has an excellent plan to serve these needs (detailed here), which includes safe drive-thru distribution of food boxes next week. However, in the midst of the current crisis, they are low on supplies. (Scroll to the bottom of this page to see the list of current needs). If you want to contribute to this need, but don't want to crowd your way through our already over-saturated, over-crowded grocery stores, you can give below, and we will do the shopping all at once! Once the grocery need is taken care of , any remainder of these funds will go to supplement needs like rent, utility payments, or childcare for those who are finding themselves out of work, or out of resources.
