The pandemic taught us we're a nation of charity

When a crisis threatens America, we rise to the occasion. Neighbors dedicated to helping neighbors and businesses quickly stepped up like never before to help those in need. In fact, giving became contagious and everyone was taking part in it. Our children and elderly were given extra care and support also. We were able to bridge the gap between vulnerability and uncertainty to ensure that no individual was left behind.
