Supporting The Chicago Community During COVID-19

 
 

In recent weeks many members of our beloved Chicago community, along with the rest of the nation, have come to face uncertain times and devastating impacts due to the current health pandemic surrounding COVID - 19. From our favorite musicians having to cancel upcoming shows to studios, venues, restaurants, and other small businesses having to close their doors indefinitely, a vast amount of entities and the hardworking people who contribute to their space’s day-to-day operations have come to find themselves in difficult positions.

Below, we’ve highlighted some of the members of our community who could benefit from the support of those who are able to provide it. Whether they’ve stated they are open for business via carryout or delivery or passed along relief fund links to help support their staff and employees, these are only a handful of spaces that could benefit from the support of those who are able to help.

In addition to those mentioned below, you can find a directory of fundraisers, resources and information for many other entities in our city and state via Chicago Service Relief and Illinois.gov’s COVID - 19 Small Biz Assistance page. If there is another cause, business or resource you think we should have added to this list please email us at thesedayschicago@gmail.com with a link to the page or site. We encourage our friends and community members to stay safe, healthy and informed in the coming weeks.
