Hey Raleigh, Trevor here. 👋 You all have shown us your incredible compassion for those in our community and your desire to lend a helping hand. No matter if it’s day-to-day or during major disasters, there is a constant flood of generosity + support in our city.

From curiosity about how to continue to support local businesses and local residents to questions of how we can help healthcare providers + medical professionals, we can see the love our community has through your engagement with us and emails asking for ways to give back.

If you are looking for opportunities to make a positive impact on those affected by COVID-19, here are some local relief funds and drives that are seeking donations. These organizations are a great way to give back to the community + great resources to share with anyone you know who may need help.

Note: These are just a few of the many organizations around the Triangle that are helping during this pandemic. If you know of any other organizations, please share them with us by replying to this email.
