2020-04-09Photograph of a flyer.
This is a photograph of a flyer posted on the side of a Hispanic grocery store at the end of my street in Northside Chicago on my way back from a quick grocery trip. This GoFundMe was created March 20th by members of the Uptown Buena Park Solidarity Network. The Uptown and Buena Park areas are home to older people, people out of homes, migrants of many countries and cultures, and more recently, young working professionals. The UBP Solidarity Network Twitter bio says they are, “an all-volunteer, grassroots group operating in Chicago's Uptown and Buena Park neighborhoods.” They set up Google forms for people in need to request groceries, bill payments or help being sheltered. Although they only exist on social media, they use physical signs because they do not want to leave out the members of the community who are most vulnerable at this time. Their social media provide links to forms where people can request help from older citizen care, grocery runs and helping with bill payments. #DePaulHST391
