Dear Fellow Californians,

Last night, Governor Gavin Newsom announced the launch of the Neighbor-to-Neighbor campaign, which calls on neighbors to be first line of support for California’s most vulnerable residents.

“It’s in these times of crisis that Californians are at their best, coming to the aid of those in their community who are most in need. I ask all Californians who are able to join our Neighbor-to-Neighbor campaign to safely assist those in need in your community,” said Governor Newsom.

The Neighbor-to-Neighbor campaign is focused on older adults and promotes ways to safely check on your neighbors, family and friends, and will be run by California Volunteers.

Join our neighbor to neighbor campaign, reach out to a neighbor today and share this flyer with family and friends!

Governor Newsom also announced an important new partnership with the social networking service Nextdoor. This partnership will allow us to provide valuable information to more than 22,000 California neighborhoods about the state’s response to COVID-19.

California Volunteers will use this site and other methods to share ways residents can safely check on each other during the COVID-19 outbreak. The platform will also be used to share ways to safely ensure community members have the basic necessities they may need during periods of home isolation.

As the COVID-19 pandemic unfolds, we must continue to find creative ways to support each other and our larger community, work that will continue long after this threat to our public health subsides.

These actions, plus many more ways Californians can safely help their community during these difficult times, are outlined on the California Volunteers website: serve.ca.gov.

Follow California Volunteers on socials and stay up to date on ways you can help us meet the moment.
