If you or someone you know has internet access, do a search for "mutual aid [city, state, etc.]" There should be some good resources depending on the location, and they're often community-run and very helpful.
Also, if you're reading this and looking to help in general, finding your local mutual aid group is a great way to support your community through donations or volunteer work! There can be questionable practices with large companies and how they handle donations/finances, so participating in something smaller can have a larger impact at your local level.

Things are honestly looking very bleak and precarious for a lot of people. Federal money for a lot of charities that keep people fed and housed might be drying up soon, so I'll echo deardoveswings and taterhole in that contributing/volunteering for local mutual aid would be a great move by everyone.
Contrary to the ruling ideology of the western world, love and survival go hand-in-hand. So lets love, and lets survive.

We're long overdue in thrusting "What do you do?" into the sea forever. It's time we collectively get down to what people are interested in instead of minimizing their vibrant existence by asking how they make money.
