a little help for my friends

Friends, I know we are all feeling a little dizzy from this roller coaster of a year. It’s comforting that we’re coming together as communities to help each other, creating handmade signs to offer hope to one another, children are decorating our sidewalks with encouragement, being conscientious and social distancing not just for ourselves but for the more vulnerable. This is what's happening and it's inspiring to see fellow humans come to the aid of others. I'm humbled daily by the stories of our Healthcare workers, first-responders, Police, grocery store clerks, delivery drivers, postal carriers, sanitation workers, people on the front lines still working for the betterment of our society and just generally kind people doing small but impactful things for the comfort of others.

During this time, many of us may struggle with a sense of purpose or if what we're doing matters. I believe it does matter. Whatever you're doing right now matters. Things that seemed trivial a couple months ago are important. Saying hi to neighbors, calling mom, sending a note to co-worker or friend, these connections are important. We want to help you stay connected to friends and family while social distancing.

For the month of April, or as long as Chicago's Shelter in Place, we'd like to help you, if we can.
