The title pretty much says it all. We talk a little more about the coronavirus in Puglia and how Italians are dealing with things. Luckily the medical system here is very good.

We talk Caremongering. A wonderful movement started in Canada. Essentially, it is a movement encouraging acts of kindness or assistance, especially to help vulnerable people, during tough times, like the COVID-19 pandemic.

And while it’s not an Italian expression, the sentiment is totally Italian.

Typically Caremongering revolves about starting your own local Facebook group. The more local, the better, like smaller towns or regions or neighborhoods in big cities.

Typically, posts are divided between two main topics: #iso and #offer. #iso posts are for people "in search of" help, whereas #offer posts are for people offering help.

For example, someone posts they are #iso toilet paper, and a neighbor can drop some off on their porch.

So, since we are spread wide and far in this group, feel free to start your own local Caremongering group!
