Helping essential workers meet their needs during the COVID-19 pandemic.

OVERVIEW / Give Essential lets you send your extra household items directly to an essential worker who needs them, providing a way to support the frontline of the coronavirus pandemic from your home. I took this up as part of an all-volunteer team to help my friends Amy and Rine (who spearhead the Give Essential project). I created the logo and designed a new website for launch in under 24 hours. As the head of strategy, I spearhead a team of digital strategists and creatives at Give Essential.

Since launch, we’ve reached over 20,000 donors and essential workers across all fifty states and have raised over $1 million in donations. Please check out our mission and consider gifting any extra stuff you might have to an essential worker by visiting giveessential.org.

Here’s a visualization my team created of all of the essential workers we’ve helped so far:
