What a nice competition! I am donating regularly to food banks, both my local one and a state wide non-profit that splits donations between three big networks that support food banks. At least it's one thing I know I can do!
I do contribute to my local food bank and other organizations, I'm mostly curious about health-care related services as I haven't heard much about supporting that directly. So that 211 idea is really good, I'll look into that, thanks!
Ah. You are great to do all of that. The medical part is much more difficult, thanks to our great free enterprise system making medical care a commodity. Maybe there is a free clinic that could use help? As Bryan Stevenson says, it's getting proximate to the problems and issues that makes a difference. Stay well.
Thanks so much. I'm in perfect, vibrant health, and have been practicing safety all along. Since I work in a medical clinic in the South Bronx, I started wearing masks and gloves while traveling as soon as I heard about the first case in Westchester, since there's no border between the counties of Bronx and Westchester. Elder Sister was a fool to avoid the doctor, and assumes responsibility for her kidneys failing. I'd offer her one of mine, but we're probably not a tissue match (different blood types, for one thing), elective surgery is too dangerous at present, and she'd only ruin my perfectly good kidney.
A couple of pro tips (from municipal contracting experience with extra billing): force the contractor to sign a contract that favors the owner—so egregiously—that “no attorney would recommend signing it,” require excessive documentation such as certified payroll and protected-class participation percentages, recalculate quantities (for unit-price contracts), disallow “incidental items,” and string out payment as long as possible. I have managed projects whose field work lasted two months—but the contracts had birthday parties.
I'm old enough to be at higher risk, and I don't want to die, or have long-term health complications. But worse, I have relatives who would almost certain sure die of this if they got it due to advanced age and/or existing health problems.

That's the entire population of Australia and half of New Zealand. Jesus.

I haven't done any impossible things this morning, much less the required six to round it off with breakfast there.
Will they be parking them outside the schools?
This cannot really be a bot writing, can it? Some clever screenwriter writing like a bot, perhaps?
If it really is a bot, I guess the screenwriters of the world can rest easy for a while yet.

Amen to that bro.
Yes, the death spiral.

I drink it. It's honestly not bad. Not great, but no worse than, say, SlimFast. And it actually fills me up pretty well.
we had stick and rock.
All we had as children was dead rat on a string. And we liked it!
