How To Help During Covid 19

How To Help During The Coronavirus

With the Coronavirus cases ramping across the globe, many of us are stuck at home looking for ways to help. We feel helpless watching health care workers head into work and wish there was more we could do. Well my friends, there are ways we can help!

Here are 8 ways to help during Coronavirus crises!

STAY HOME

It seems easy enough. Almost not enough, but the very, very best way to help your local, national and international community is to stay home. By now we have all heard the phrase, ‘flatten the curve.’

We’ve seen what’s happened in Italy and know that if we are responsible and keep a safe distance from others, we can slow dow this dangerous pandemic and help ease the load of our health care workers.

Stay home unless ABSOLUTELY necessary.

DONATE BLOOD

The American Red Cross now faces a severe blood shortage due to an unprecedented number of blood drive cancellations during this coronavirus outbreak. 

Right now, eligible and healthy donors are strongly urged to make an appointment!

SUPPORT SMALL BUSINESSES

So many of our beloved small businesses are closing their doors unsure if they’ll be able to open them again after this all passes. Many have lost their income stream overnight, having to lay off employees unexpectedly.

You can support these businesses by buying gift cards, ordering from their websites and leaving Facebook and Google reviews.

SEW & DONATE FACE MASKS

Hospitals near you are reaching out via social media to ask for help in solving the shortage of N95-type masks.

If you have the means, skill and time, please help make these masks for the heroic medical workers in your area. You can download a pattern from HERE.

DONATE TO A LOCAL FOOD BANK

Providing a lifeline of emergency supplies, food banks are likely to become overwhelmed in the next few months.

If you have extra canned goods, consider dropping it off at your local food bank. Even one can of food helps!

VOLUNTEER YOUR SKILLS & KNOWLEDGE

With children and all of humanity stuck at home, volunteer your skills and knowledge to teach those around you. It’s a great time to connect digitally and help foster skills in others.

Live stream yourself making bread, conducting a workout, speaking Spanish, doing calligraphy, etc… Provide free content to a world starving for ways to grow, connect and learn.

ENSURE THE ELDERLY ARE OK

Consistently check in on your elderly neighbors and family members. Help them order grocery delivery, pick up their prescriptions and keep them indoors!

Write them notes, facetime their phones and leave fun packages on their porches. You could even send them a Sunshine In A Box!

DON’T SHOP UNLESS YOU ABSOLUTELY NEED TO

Now that most of America has stock-piled toilet paper and pantry supplies, it’s important to use what we have. There is no need to panic shop and hoard all the things! Let’s allow the supply chains to do their work so there is enough of everything for everyone.

We will need to get creative, cook more than usual and ensure we don’t waste food/supplies! And make sure to share with your neighbors and friends that may need a supply or two.

    This is an anxious time when we all need support more than ever.
    Small business owners are undoubtedly facing difficulties now. We support our local entrepreneurs by ordering goods and products directly from them. My husband also donates money to make masks for those in need.
    I really hope that we will soon overcome this difficult situation. Stay safe and stay home.

  • Happy Saturday!! What are you crafting this weekend?! I’ve been making a million of these heart flags/stands from the designs available in my Rainbow Bundle. I’m obsessed with them. Wouldn’t they be perfect for a rainbow-themed birthday party or baby shower?! And yes!! Your Cricut Maker can cut wood! #LTDcrafts #cricutmade #cricutcreations #svgcuttingfiles #craftersofinstagram
  • This is a HOPE post for a smaller population that I don’t talk much about here on Instagram. This post is for the immunocompromised community and for families who have had to be SUPER careful this last year because they’ve been keeping themselves or their high risk loved ones safe from COVID. It’s for those who know how extremely difficult medical and health challenges are and how scary this virus has been for us. 

Personally, we’ve been working to keep Ry, my husband, alive for the last ten years and to say we were terrified of him getting COVID is an understatement. It’s been a long, lonely year at home, but oh so worth it. 

But less about that and more about HOPE! Ry and I were able to receive the vaccine under the B1 category of the Texas vaccination roll-out and today I went out to lunch with my best friend! It was my first time in a restaurant in almost a year and it felt glorious. And just to sit and chat with her made me nearly explode with joy. I mean I love Marco Polo as much as the next person, but to sit across from her was heavenly. 

Hope is here for the immunocompromised community and our family is so, so grateful to the medical and science community for all their tireless work this last year. Thank you, thank you, thank you! And to those of you who are compromised waiting for a vaccine….keep trying!! We spent hours and hours putting ourselves on waiting lists. They are getting easier to find and receive! #covidvacccine #vaccine #hashimotosdisease #hopeforthefuture #craftersofinstagram
  • Do you have someone in your life who is pure magic? I sure do! @leads_by_mandi_jackson is pretty magical and makes my life so much better. Because it’s been one heck of a year, I think we all  should express love to our magic family and friends. Life is short and goodness, the world needs it. ⁣
⁣
If you have someone in your life that is magic, I want to hear all about them!! Tag them here and tell me why they are so great. Both of you will have a chance to win my Rainbow Bundle (that includes these printable tags). #LTDprintables #svgcuttingfiles #cricutcreations #craftersofinstagram #craftinessishappiness

  • Let the madness begin!! It’s that time again! If you follow or are into college basketball, you absolutely need this March Madness oversized bracket. It’s so easy to print (I get ours printed at UPS) and hang on the wall (hello @command strips) during the tournament. I love seeing pictures of people who put it up in their work offices, garages and homes and seeing how much fun they have filling it out! You can find the link to the file in my bio. #marchmadness #basketballislife #collegebasketball #ncaabasketball #printables
  • Continuing on with all things rainbow!! Today I
  • What a week! We are starting to thaw out here in Texas, but it’s been a doozy. Despite the catastrophic damage, inconveniences and lack of supplies on shelves, it’s been amazing to see people come together and help one another. There really is something to the Texas spirt that inspires people to think of others over self. ⁣
⁣
That being said, we’re ready for warmer weather! Bring on the sun and ALL the rainbows! ⁣
⁣
My rainbow SVG & Printable Bundle is LIVE and today I’m sharing how to create a Rainbow Cake Topper three different ways. You can make this topper with or without a Cricut Machine out of felt, paper or a printable! Head to my blog or YouTube to check it out. #ltdprintables #makeitwithmichaels #cricutmade #svgcuttingfiles #svgfilesforcricut #papercrafting #craftersofinstagram
  • It might be 2 degrees here in Texas (what is even happening 🥶🥶?!), but all I’m seeing is rainbows! My latest bundle is live and in my shop. I’m pretty obsessed with it because C….O…..L….O…..R!!!! ⁣
⁣
I can’t wait to show you how to turn the bundle files into: cake toppers, garlands, heart skewers stands, Cricut print & cut gift tags and vinyl signs! ⁣
⁣
The options with these files are endless! I can’t wait to see what you do with them. Head to my blog to learn more about the bundle. #svgcuttingfiles #svgfilesforcricut  #rainbowtheme #printables #diyideas #makeitwithmichaels #cricutmade
  • It’s hard to believe, but our very last Valentine’s Box is finished!  This is a yearly task that most parents loathe, but for some reason we absolutely adore it. We love taking something our daughters are really into and turning it into a physical box. ⁣
⁣
We love the excuse to spend the weekend together, brainstorming construction and giggling away as we create the box. This year, my Star Wars-obsessed daughter knew EXACTLY what she wanted. This is the helmet of Bo-Katan, her favorite character in The Mandalorian. We are all about #girlpower over here so we jumped on it and went to work. We used papier-mâché for the first time and can’t stop laughing that the helmet box is as big is she is.⁣
⁣
It was the perfect box and memory to end this fabulous tradition. I’m not quite ready, but farewell Valentine’s Box days. Middle school Valentine-angst here we come. #bokatan #themandalorian #starwarsart #diyideas #valentinesdaybox #usetheforce
