We chatted with Andrew and Anna this morning about Share the Care! This project is a way young people in our community are thanking health care workers that are putting their lives at risk to keep us safe during COVID-19. Through the project, youth create art, videos, or write a simple note to express their gratitude for health care workers. This project goes to show that no matter how old you are, you can make a difference. We're inspired by the compassion and resilience of young people in our community!
