In March, the Center for Disaster Philanthropy (CDP) launched the CDP COVID-19 Response Fund to support containment, response and recovery activities for those most affected and for all responders. The CDP COVID-19 Response Fund is focusing on support for nonprofit organizations working directly to respond to the pandemic among vulnerable populations in order to help build their capacity to address the most pressing needs. The Community Foundation for Northern Virginia has launched the COVID-19 Response Fund for Northern Virginia to attract and provide flexible funding resources for nonprofit organizations and other programs in our region responding to COVID-19 and its impacts.

Before participating in a campaign, people want to understand how their action will truly make an impact on the cause that’s being promoted. We work with Red Gold on its cause marketing hunger campaign that calls on families to help families in need. “1 can = 1 meal” – can’t get much clearer to demonstrate impact for the cause.

Visit their website and support them in their efforts here: Community Health Charities connects more than 2,000 of the most trusted health charities across the United States with more than 17 million caring employees through workplace giving campaigns.

A recent Gallup survey shows that 72% of U. S. adults now say they are avoiding public places like stores and restaurants.

While this change in activity greatly limits foot traffic and in-person engagement, companies can amplify their employee, customer or member communication digitally to sustain and build relationships through this turbulent time. Whether your messages are related to COVID-19 or another topic, national, local and trade media are continuing to cover news and reporters want to hear from experts.
