As the entire world enters an uncertain climate, with new guidelines resulting in unfamiliar feelings, we look for solace in community. For the first time in a long time, people in the Western world are forced to make decisions based on the wellbeing of those all around them, and on slowing down as the coronavirus pandemic unfolds. 

Many people and businesses are suffering right now, with health problems and lack of income topping the list of worries. Some might have been asked to stay home for an indefinite period, with home not being the safest place to be. Others wonder where the next rent check will come from. It is scary — but the light throughout this, as is the case in any difficult moments, are the people who extend themselves to help however they can. 

Businesses and individuals with the means have reached out to the public. These gestures restore morale and show the humanity in all of us, helping people come together when we need it most. Prestigious universities have offered free classes, yoga studios have made available free online lessons, and some spots have free food for those in need. 

Here are some of the businesses and people helping others right now. We love to see it.
