VCCF : Accéder au soutien du Fonds de réponse rapide du comté de Ventura (COVID-19)
Chère famille de la Ventura County Community Foundation,
I’m writing to share vital information on how individuals, families, undocumented workers, small businesses, and local nonprofit organizations can register their needs for help. Please share.
So many facets of our community are impacted in this current situation. But, as we have come to appreciate more and more over the past several years, we live in a generous and resilient county. I’m witnessing intense acts of kindness. People picking up diapers for housebound families, bringing meals, and donating to provide basic needs and support. Thank you to all that have been responding to help our neighbors, families, small businesses, and local nonprofits during this challenging time.
While our fundraising efforts for the Fonds de réponse rapide du comté de Ventura began this past Friday, and we are still working hard to generate funding to support our community, we wanted to help people begin to register their needs for assistance.
