Men's NetWork WORK DAY Suggestions - SERVE-AT-HOME Ideas

List of ideas for serving your neighbor during a time of social distancing (borrowed from various sources):

• Leave notes on your neighbors' doors with contact information offering your assistance if needed.

• Text/contact neighbors to see if they need help with any errands such as picking up medicine or groceries.

• Organize a backyard BBQ where everyone is outside at the same time, but in their own backyards.

• Collect food for your neighborhood or community food pantry.

• Take a walk around the neighborhood looking for evidence of neighbors needing help: (newspapers not taken in, yard work needing done, trash flowing over) and leave a note offering help.

• Volunteer to take a shift to help deep clean a non-profit or community-run facility (local school, library, community center, food pantry, etc.).

• Share encouragement via social media and text and stay connected to them.

• Take flowers or baked goods to a local nursing home to cheer up the residents, since many cannot have visitors.

• Purchase/collect for gift cards to give to medical professionals and other emergency workers who are working extra hours in dangerous situations.

• Write letters of encouragement to friends/family far away.

• Organize a "church parade", driving through neighborhoods to greet and encourage those in the community.

• Equip your local Christian non-profit with LHM's Project Connect booklets and children's booklets to include in their food giveaways or deliveries.

• Offer prayers and financial assistance to those who have been furloughed or lost their jobs.
