Virtual Volunteering

With recent events surrounding the pandemic, many non-profit organizations have created innovative ways for communities to engage in virtual volunteering. This past month, the PPR team participated in virtual volunteering activities with non-profits aligned with their passions. To inspire and encourage others, we wanted to share some of the activities the team participated in:

• Writing letters to frontline healthcare workers using Postable, a card-sending company. You can send cards to workers all over the country. All of the proceeds from the cards go to the Frontline Responders Fund to help provide PPE to healthcare workers.
• Writing letters to residents and workers at Senior Source.
• Making educational kits to donate to Child Care Group, such as a sensory hoop and feeling cards.
• Video recording reading a book for children experiencing homelessness through Vogel Alcove

These are just a few opportunities our team participated in. There are far more! If you are in the Dallas area, United Way has created a great list of possibilities. It is our hope this creates a ripple effect of kindness as we continue to stay safe together.
