As COVID-19 variants continue to cause surges worldwide, many people are seeking direction on how to continue to provide help to those in need. The guidance and resources below are designed to help you identify effective ways to make a difference with your giving in three focus areas: supporting medical needs, protecting vulnerable populations and sustaining all nonprofits.
As the situation continues to evolve, we will continue to update this page with relevant resources and guidance.
We’ve identified three critical areas where giving can make the greatest difference in this pandemic. For each area, we’ve determined key ways to help. We’ve also worked with the Center for Disaster Philanthropy, to find organizations actively working to provide aid.
Support
medical needs
Needs in this area include support for frontline health staff, prevention education and vaccine distribution.
Protect
vulnerable populations
Help those who may be affected the most by the pandemic.
Sustain
all nonprofits
Many nonprofits face continued ripple effects from the pandemic. Continue to support the organizations you have always supported.
