Help Out These Networks Fighting The COVID-19 Pandemic

As the world experiences lockdown due to the coronavirus, the reality of the poverty stricken who barely make ends meet and now have even the smallest of jobs prohibited, and the unemployed who rely on help to survive is a bleak one. Being this poor is a struggle to survive even a global pandemic. So it’s heartening to hear that even under these difficult circumstances, charities, PBO networks, NPOs, small online businesses, and individuals are doing their utmost to help the most vulnerable in our society. This also gives you as an individual the opportunity to help and make a contribution, by donating money, or dropping off groceries, or giving essential workers a place to stay (following lockdown guidelines of course).
