I'm totally sympathetic to what you said because it's been very painful for me and my wife to see and hear of people losing their jobs, go through pay cuts, furlows... our own neighbors who had to pull their kids out of daycare to see where they can save on cash after a pay cut and expectations of a layoff and talking to people asking me about credit cards they could apply for (I'm a credit card nerd). So many Americans hurting right now. We were already involved in supporting the needs of US families in various communities through the church we attend. During this pandemic, we made some big ticket purchases we were holding off all along through local contractors. and buy more local and be a little bit more liberal in our spending. But yeah, I'm on the same page on needing to do more directly where it hurts. Food banks are one area we occasionally contribute to but I'd be interested to know about organizations that reach out to families who are hurting right now due to a job loss and can't make ends meet if such an organization exists.
