With a week to go, I'm raising funds for the largest hunger relief organization in our area. CTFB serves 21 counties with assistance of 250 partner organizations. Each weekend, they distribute thousands of emergency food boxes (and hygiene products) to central Texans in need. We will be matching initial $500, so if you're able to give any amount, please donate at https://help-prepare-families.everydayhero.com/us/mel-s-birthday-fundraiser-live

Couch Potatoes looking for volunteers to help create masks at home
Austin's Couch Potatoes is offering at-home sewing kits for those who want to sew masks for the community. Beginning in late March, the local store ceased furniture production and began creating masks and gowns to cover shortages. Now, the store is looking for volunteers to help create 1,500 masks and 6,000 gowns using the at-home kits. Austin's Couch Potatoes said the goal is for each volunteer to sew 50 masks at home using the kits—the store arranges dropping off materials and picking up the masks. If you'd like to donate, or you have any questions, email donate@austincouches.com.

Man survives COVID and shares stories of hope
“This whole ordeal for me has been a crisis of health that has led to me becoming a more healthy person. It finally shook me into tracking my calories, eating healthy, exercising again. Everyone else (from Newchip) just got slightly sick, and I got really sick because I haven’t taken care of myself over the last couple years and I need to do that.” For anyone worried about the virus he says “boost your immune system as much as you can, get as healthy as fast as you can.” Source: https://www.fox7austin.com/news/austin-man-who-survived-covid-19-shares-story-in-hopes-of-helping-others
