A Win Win Win Win

Last week I told you the best crisis-related idea I’d heard so far is funding local restaurants to feed hospital workers and others in need. It’s a win-win-win-win as it supports shuttered restaurants, saves jobs, assists those on the front lines of the crisis, and makes you feel better for supporting a great effort. Well, just such a program has been launched in LA (it will connect with other like-minded programs and go statewide and national). Eventually, one hopes, states will jump in to support these efforts. But in the meantime, it’s up to you and me. Help Feed the Frontline is working with Jose Andres’ World Central Kitchen, and all donations are tax deductible. Donate now via this GoFundMe Page. (You can put NextDraft in the comment box to help motivate our community!) Please help me spread the word.

+ You may have noticed the new “ad” at the top of the newsletter. NextDraft has gone revenue-free and will instead support Crisis Text Line, an amazing organization providing help when and where it’s needed. If you need help, just visit their site. If you have help to give, you can sign-up to be a volunteer to counsel people over text (don’t worry, you will be trained). This organization has already helped thousands. They’re not new. But this challenge is.
