I hope you all are well and safe, medically and economically!

For my part, just me, personally, I've been working from home for a few weeks now under "shelter in place" orders. I know that I am very, very, very lucky to be healthy so far and not in immediate fear of going without a paycheck.

I've started looking for ways that I can contribute to helping in this emergency while still [over]working as usual.

My best friend is a quilter; she's making cloth masks to donate (yes, we've reached the point where this is a thing; the fabric must be very close-woven, high-thread-count cotton). I don't own a sewing machine, and I don't have the right fabric.
As I identified some charities, I noticed that I haven't yet seen the usual fandom reaction of charity fundraiser fanwork auctions, because of course those come after disasters, and this disaster is still now.
Then I remembered that giving blood used to be FK fandom's preferred method of helping the community.

The need for blood hasn't diminished. People with all the other accidents and illnesses haven't stopped needing care. Normal blood drives have had to be canceled. And, hey, going out to give blood is totally allowed under the "shelter in place" order where I am, so, bonus, legitimate excuse to go somewhere!

Just thought I'd share the idea. ♥
