And as independent small businesses classified as "nonessential," like bookstores and art galleries, are forced to close they also find themselves in the same increasingly dire situation. | ||

| Wonderfully, though, fundraisers are popping up all over the place to provide some emergency relief.

It turns out I wasn't the only one with this idea! |

+There is no doubt in my mind that we are living in unprecedented times. People, businesses, countries and world economies are all reeling from the fallout of the coronavirus pandemic sweeping the globe.
