As each and everyone one of us makes preparations for the looming economic, political, and public health crisis, it is important to highlight that migrants, refugees, and low-wage workers in general— and day laborers specifically— face uniquely dangerous obstacles. Already targeted and victimized by unprecedented xenophobia and inequality, many of the people we work with will find themselves completely walled out of access to basic necessities in the weeks ahead. This fund will provide direct assistance to migrant workers who find themselves uniquely vulnerable in the face of the Coronavirus...

If donations exceed the LAFD’s coronavirus-related needs, any additional funds will go toward purchases requested by Fire...
