COVID-19 Resources and Information
COVID-19 (coronavirus) has demonstrated that millions of working class people are the ones who keep our society running: we get food to people's plates, pick up everyone's trash, treat people for illness and disease, care for children. The people ARE the power, and it's time to prove it.
Philly Socialists has been working in a multitude of ways to combat the painful effects of COVID-19 on our community. You can learn more at the links below:
Philly Socialists has made grocery deliveries to hundreds of families throughout Philadelphia. We are prioritizing those most vulnerable and affected by COVID-19: the sick, disabled, quarantined without pay, those limited in work, undocumented, queer, Black, Indigenous, and people of color.
