Vecinos BH

We provided some direct and indirect assistance to 616 residents across the state of GA who were struggling to pay their rent or utilities due to the COVID-19 Pandemic by connecting residents to national organizations providing rent payments or by distributing rent payments. We also provided fresh produce to 40 families per week from May-Sept., assisted in distributing 1000 meals per day from Apr-June, and provided an additional fresh produce box to 300 families per month from July-Nov.

We provided educational workshops for parents to assist with the digital learning atmosphere, the workshops included how to contact teachers, how to create and use an email address, and even connected parents to their regional superintendent.

We distributed nonpartisan election information and information on the 2020 census to residents in GA in their primary or preferred language by providing fliers, hosting online events, and sending text messages with information.
