Dear friends,
In just a few days, our movement has started hundreds of
local viral kindness Facebook groups across the planet.
They're helping protect the most vulnerable to maintain
isolation by assisting them with essential needs, sharing
wisdom and vital information, and identifying ways we can all
help each other get through this.

Here are just some of the amazing things these groups are
doing:
- In Valencia (Spain), a Viral Kindness group is already
helping organise blood donation drives for those in
need.
- A Brazilian local group is fact-checking information to
debunk fake news and misinformation on the coronavirus.
- An Avaazer in Belgium has brought together over 200
people across the country, and they are posting
inspirational content and videos on how to psychologically
deal with the crisis.
And hundreds more groups
are responding to requests from individuals for help, and
connecting to share the best wisdom, humanity, and
humour we have to offer each other to get through this and
come out stronger.

This is the magic of our movement rising to this
moment. We can rise to this virus with kindness and
wisdom, slow it down, protect the vulnerable, and make our
communities stronger in the process. Let's go for it! Join or
start a group now.
With hope,
Ricken, Mike, Nax, Martyna, Raul, Inessa,
Bert and the whole Avaaz team
