Learn more about the resources available to neighbors during the COVID – 19 pandemic

The Amplify GR team is honored to be a part of a community that cares for one another in times of crisis and is encouraged daily by the resiliency of neighbors

We’ve all had to adapt quickly to find new ways to support and uplift each other during this time, balanced by new ways of protecting our communities through social distancing. This crisis has served asa reminder of why equity, access and widening pathways for more neighbors is so important. It has also confirmed how connected we all are–and how much we depend on each other. While 2020 has brought many new challenges, the Amplify GR team is committed to continuing to serve neighbors during these trying times.
