With everything going on right now it's extremely easy to just lose sight of most things and just focus on your own needs and your family needs. However there are people, more specifically 75+ families currently in need. Some are struggling to pay for food, electricity, and running water, others have lost their job or current work due to the Coronavirus outbreak. A small donation of whatever you can or want to give right now could mean so much for these families.
