As   Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic spreads throughout the world, most countries   are strongly encouraging folks to begin social distancing and don't make any   unnecessary trips.
   
   
   
    COVID-19 is especially dangerous for older folks (50+) and   immunocompromised individuals. Elderly Asian individuals are arguably the   most affected by this. Not only do they face discrimination, they also have   barriers of accessibility, mobility, and language.
   
   
   
    The goal of this project is to provide support for these people by   delivering groceries or running errands, minimizing the contact they have   with the outside.
   
   
   
    (note I'm not part of this project, heard about it from Facebook friend who   is one of the organizers so I copied the description from their website)~~~~

Free   grocery delivery for those impacted by COVID-19~Based on projections, we   expect that the new coronavirus will have a severe impact on people in   Atlanta. Before long, everyone will know someone personally who's impacted by   the pandemic, and institutions will not be able to keep up with the need for   aid. Official support will not be available to everyone, particularly those   already marginalized and unprivileged.
   
       Time is short, we need to act now   to organize ourselves to care for our communities. While the most immediate   needs are for medical care, most of us are not medical experts. But everyone   can support each other by caring for other vital needs.
   
       No matter how you're affected by   the pandemic, the Food4Life program exists to help everyone survive.
   
    WE SUPPORT ANYONE WHO: **Is already self-isolating because their age and/or   medical conditions put them in serious danger if they contract the virus;   **Can't afford expensive grocery delivery services must either risk exposure   or go hungry.** Is sick and cannot leave home for fear of infecting others.   **Can't afford groceries because of lost work or structural poverty **Lives   in a food desert. Lack of access to healthy food weakens the immune system,   putting everyone in greater danger.
   
    THE PROGRAM IS STRAIGHTFORWARD IN PRACTICE: Bulk food is donated by   charities, grocery stores, community groups, and farmers. / Volunteers are   provided with protective equipment and training for preventing the spread of   contagions. / Organizers dispatch volunteers to make deliveries on a   schedule, and handle logistics. / Grocery drop-offs are made directly outside   the homes of people in need, avoiding direct contact.~Sign up to help~Request   free groceries~

We are an   all-volunteer network working to meet the needs of directly impacted   communities in Beacon NY in the mid-hudson Valley.
