Charities see 'sharp decline' in volunteers due to coronavirus

Charities are struggling to find volunteers as coronavirus concerns keep people home.

Soup kitchens, food pantries, and animal shelters are losing many regular volunteers as people choose to stay home while the need for such organizations is growing during the pandemic, according to the Associated Press. The poor and the homeless are some of the most vulnerable populations during any crisis, and shelter animals still need time out of their cages and pens.
