First the good news, William: 50,000 Bernie supporters donated more than $2 million in 2 days to support five charities helping people who are already hurt by the economic crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic.

That’s $2,000,000 going directly to help gig economy workers, restaurant workers, and domestic workers, and to feed seniors and kids. Thank you. Your donations will save lives.

Now the better news: we’ve identified 9 new charities that also need support during this crisis. I’m going to explain more about them shortly, but if you’re in to help — and only if you’re able to — can you chip in $10 to split among these nine groups who are helping in this crisis?

Please split a $10 contribution between nine charities and groups helping people hurt by the economic crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic. This is important.

As you know, we are likely already in an economic recession. Social distancing, which is necessary to slow the spread of the coronavirus, has caused many businesses to cut hours, lay off workers, or close up entirely.

What is brewing is an economic crisis that threatens to leave millions of people behind. And while Bernie is working to find solutions that will cover our country at scale, we as individuals can take small, immediate steps to help those around us who need it.

That is why these nine new groups we have identified are so important. They are working to feed and fund and organize people who are in need during this crisis. Let me tell you more about them, and then ask you to chip in $10 to support their work:

Feeding America supports a nationwide network for 200+ foodbanks that keep tens of millions of people fed even before this crisis — and their work is even more important now.

UNITE HERE Education and Support Fund is a nonprofit organization supporting hospitality workers who have been displaced or laid off because of this economic crisis. These workers have been hit hard, and they need all the support they can get.

American Guild of Musical Artists (AGMA) Relief Fund is supporting musicians who are no longer able to tour or host gigs because venues and clubs are shut down. Your support to this charity will give relief to artists who are struggling during the crisis.

Coworker.org is a nonprofit organizing platform for workers across the country to organize for rights at work and make their workplaces safer. Already this week Starbucks workers won sick leave during the pandemic using the platform, and Amazon workers and USPS employees are organizing for their safety.

Make the Road COVID-19 Emergency Response Fund supports outreach and support efforts to low-income immigrants and to organize to ensure that they are not left out of traditional government responses.

National Domestic Violence Hotline is unfortunately seeing a rise of calls and more people in need as more and more cities are having people shelter in place. Adding a donation to the hotline will ensure they have the resources to be staffed and provide resources towards safe havens for those in need.

US Bartenders Guild COVID-19 Relief Fund is a nonprofit organization of bartenders who are banding together as their workplaces close, and are providing grants and loans to people who need help until their places of work reopen.

CPD Action Solidarity Fund is working to protect and empower the working class, immigrants and communities of color. They are providing resources, support and mutual aid across their network of affiliated organizations.

Children of Restaurant Employees COVID-19 Relief Program is providing direct relief to people in the restaurant industry who have children to make sure their kids are fed and cared for even if their parents aren’t working.

These nine groups are on the front lines of the economic crisis, working to provide resources and relief to people who desperately need help.

While we are working to make sure we have scalable solutions to this crisis from the government, if you are able to make one, your contribution can go a long way to support people who need help NOW.

Please split a $10 contribution to these nine new charities working with people who are already feeling the pain of the economic crisis stemming from the coronavirus pandemic.

Thank you for all you do for our movement, and for our country. This is an unprecedented moment in history, and Bernie is glad to know that we are all in this together.

In solidarity,

Faiz Shakir
Campaign Manager
