Spreading Love

Over the last couple of weeks, I've felt tired, worried, uncertain, scared, all the emotions but also, this overwhelming feeling of gratitude. I'm so grateful for my health, family, and our safe home. But with this gratitude comes the desire to spread love and hope. I know that people want to help but it's hard to navigate what we can do in these uncertain times. I've made a list of ideas of how you can spread some love, which is written below.

Also, if you are feeling like you are struggling mentally, need support with groceries, general tasks or are worried financially, don't be afraid to reach out. Here are a couple of websites that you can post your needs and volunteers will connect with you.
