Here we are in our second week of being a major covid hotspot. How does it feel for you, friends? It’s not all that fun, is it? Several of my Hispanic friends are dealing with covid in their families and today I’m just feeling huge sadness for the anxiety creeping into our lives as this becomes our reality.
The NWA New Sanctuary Network has set up a fund to help immigrant families in our area. Especially some who aren’t eligible for the kind of government assistance that most of us receive. My friend Irma Chavez of Arkansas United is orchestrating food boxes and rent assistance wildly in all directions for some of them. She’ll do more if she has more resources. I told her that Omni folks would help. Can you be one of those kind hearts who’ll donate to neighbors in distress?
Here’s a link to donate to Omni’s fundraiser for NWA New Sanctuary. If you can help it will build links of kindness across our cultures in ways we can’t quite recognize yet, but as the love grows the whole community gets stronger.
Please donate friends. Omni Fundraiser for Immigrant Support
