Metrowest Worker Center, Inc.

Low-income immigrant workers will be the most affected by the COVID-19 shutdown.  They are often living on the edge of financial and food security as it is, they work in hotels, restaurants and in housekeeping in large numbers.   Many of these clients are asylum seekers who fled violence and poverty to come here.  My clients, in my experience, are the bravest most dignified people on earth. For them to ask for help is itself a terrible indignity.  

For years I have worked with Metrowest Workers center.    They have assisted many families affected by family separation, including many of my clients.  They have assisted asylum seekers find housing, food and shelter.  They advocate on behalf of immigrants all over the Metrowest area and beyond.  The people who volunteer there are amazingly kind, wonderful people. The people they help also.

I have started this campaign to try and help all those most affected by this shutdown, other than the people sickened by it of course.  I donated $500.00 from my family.  I know everyone is scared and hurting now but if you can spare - even $10.00 will buy a family of four canned goods and food they may not otherwise have.  All proceeds go towards food scarcity and housing assistance.  Thank you.
