This is IMPACT. A daily look at how we are coping with the coronavirus in Nevada. I’m Carrie Kaufman.

What can I do to help?

No doubt, we’ve all asked that question without even thinking about it.

When we walk in to a party and see the host scurrying around trying to get last minute cooking done.

What can I do to help?

When we volunteer at our kids’ schools

What can I do to help?

When we do walk-a-thons to raise money for cancer or sign people up to vote.

Humans DO things. And most of us want to do things to make the world a better place.

I’m a journalist, because I want to connect people with information.

Artists… actors, clowns, musicians, painters… connect people not with information, but with images, drama, laughter.

We’re going to talk today about different ways people are DOING SOMETHING in this time when we feel utterly helpless and staying home - while the experts say it is the best thing we can do - just doesn’t feel like enough.
