Who should you help during the coronavirus pandemic?
Position6 of 8

Help your neighbours

This position holds that you should help your neighbours during the coronavirus pandemic. It argues charity starts at home—everyone knows someone nearby who needs support—so that if each person helped their own community and overlooked small local non-profits, nobody would be left without aid.

  1. Charity starts at home
    If everyone looked after those immediately closest to them, everyone would have the support they need.
  2. Small non-profits are being overlooked
    Small community non-profits are being overlooked for big multinational NGOs. Despite coronavirus occupying the concerns of many communities, other issues such as domestic violence, hunger, and mental health are still endemic.
