This March 31st, Facebook has unveiled a help tool named “Coronavirus Community Hub” soon to be available in the “Covid-19 Information Hub”.
This isn’t the first time Facebook provides this tool to users: it’s activated by the social network on global natural disasters and more recently during the fires in Australia in order to offer help and assistance.
By clicking on the “Community Hub”, Facebook users can find information about coronavirus, barrier gestures and health recommendations to protect themselves, as well as ask for or offer help in these difficult confinement times.
As a matter of fact, Facebook wishes to support vulnerable people, isolated people, elderly people who cannot leave their homes and rely on users to help them.
Thereby, in the “Community Hub” section, you can find actions in a 100km perimeter from you: some offer to go grocery shopping for the most vulnerable, others are volunteering to go on roams to help homeless.
Facebook users will also be able to go to the “Community Hub” section to donate to charities and foundations such as WHO and NATO.
