Ways to Help Your Fellow San Diegans
April 1, 2020
First and foremost, the best way to help your fellow San Diegans is to stay safe at home and prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Other ways to help:
- DONATE money, food, personal protective equipment, wish list items, and even blood. Organizations like Feeding San Diego, UC San Diego Medical Center, the San Diego Humane Society, and the San Diego Blood Bank are among many in need.
- VOLUNTEER your time (if you are healthy) by helping organizations like Serving Seniors or the San Diego Food Bank.
- SUPPORT local restaurants and small businesses. The #takeoutchallenge is an initiative to support some hard-hit establishments.
- SHARE posts on your social media about available resources for those who might need it.
- ADVOCATE for those who you feel need help.
