Across the country, people like you and I are stuck at home, feeling both helpless and the need to help. Social distancing is working, but we can do more. In the coming weeks nearly every American will receive a stimulus check to help pay rent, shop for food, and support local businesses during the COVID19 pandemic. However, some of us are in stable financial situations and don't need that money now. We have the opportunity to redirect these funds in order to support members of our community who may not be so fortunate. If you can, please pledge your check (or part of it) in order to provide food, supplies, and services to those who need it most. Your donation will support the COVID19 relief efforts in Los Angeles led by People Assisting the Homeless and the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank. Stay home, make an impact. Join the HomeTeam.

If you want to help provide food, shelter and basic services to people in need in the Santa Barbara area, contributing to this fund is one good way to do it.
