Giving Tuesday Now - Global Day of Giving and Unity
#GivingTuesdayNow is a new global day of giving and unity that will take place on May 5, 2020 – in addition to the regularly scheduled Dec 1, 2020 #GivingTuesday – as an emergency response to the unprecedented need caused by COVID-19. The day is designed to drive an influx of generosity, citizen engagement, business and philanthropy activation, and support for communities and nonprofits around the world.
At a time when we are all experiencing the pandemic, generosity is what brings people of all races, faiths, and political views together across the globe. Generosity gives everyone power to make a positive change in the lives of others and is a fundamental value anyone can act on. It’s a day for everyone around the world to stand together and give back in all ways, no matter who or where we are.
We are participating in the global day of giving and unity to raise awareness about kidney disease and the importance of organ donation. In light of postponing our 13th Annual George Lopez Celebrity Golf Classic to the fall and closing summer camp, we’re switching our focus to serve our kidney patients during this global pandemic. We are working safely from home to help our patients pay for food, medicine, incidentals and every day essentials. We’re also connecting our kidney families with helpful resources so they feel supported.
Will you join us on our mission to help serve the underprivileged during this great time of need?

Sarah Hyland on Coronavirus and Dealing with Kidney Disease
"My panic level is pretty high. But I also have a lot of health issues that are very susceptible to stress, so I'm trying to remain calm." While coronavirus still poses a threat, Sarah said her game plan is to stay inside and wear a face mask and gloves when she has to go to her doctor appointments. (Also, even if you feel totally healthy, if you can stay home, stay the hell home because you don't want to unknowingly transmit the virus to someone who is immunocompromised or the elderly, who are already at a higher risk of getting sick.)” said Sarah Hyland via Cosmopolitan.
