Communities are at the heart of everything we do at Lutheran World Relief, so as the Coronavirus (COVID-19) begins to have a greater impact across our country, we want to share some immediate steps we’ve taken to help keep you, our donors and volunteers, safe and healthy.

We are closely following guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO), and other local and national health organizations. We will continue to monitor the situation and we suggest the following actions for Ingathering protocol:

• We recommend all volunteers and persons donating take precautionary health measures, including wearing a cloth face covering, frequent hand washing, and staying home when sick.

• We suggest that Ingatherings be restricted to DROP-OFFS ONLY, in order to limit the amount of time people spend together. We know that fellowship is important, but we also care about your health and safety.
