Amid depressing divisions, isolation and loneliness in Wisconsin, people are mending the social fabric. We'll tell their stories. https://t.co/6KfTkSGqSs via @journalsentinel

@Fletchpost I'm former NPR reporter looking for great reporters covering what's happening in Baltimore neighborhoods these days. Any suggestions?

[Michael Skoler @mskoler]

@alhambrausd Very inspiring work to support kids doing virtual school. Take note, @Weaving_US

I just donated to @Wikipedia. Support free knowledge! #iloveWikipedia https://t.co/0gwhCpZUUF

This is how many of us are feeling right now.

Terrific interview with my #WeavingCommunity collaborator @kristinjhansen, who left the tech world after the 2016 election to work on bringing this nation together across our many divides.

New online #WeavingCommunity campaign aims to confront the social crisis created by the COVID-19 pandemic. https://t.co/y2DPBIR8X1 #mutualaid #massachusetts #coronavirus #COVID19

Happy #ListenFirst Friday from Sam Cherry of
@AspenInstitute & @Weaving_US. Although our experiences are different, there is probably someone out there feeling similar to the way you do - by putting it out there you might help them feel less alone. #LetsGoThere #WeavingCommunity

[Jenn Hoos Rothberg @jennrothberg]

We are more than this crisis. Through small acts of bravery, caring, and connection, we can heal this pain and weave the future we want. #LetsGoThere #WeavingCommunity https://t.co/uXmIOYQTdX

Just added my donation to this amazing community group supporting neighbors in Southeast DC. When the pandemic hit, @DCDreamCenter shifted its youth and family programs to providing food and supplies to all in need. They make #WeavingCommunity look easy.

[DC Dream Center @DCDreamCenter]

Thank you for your incredible generosity!! An update on the work at the DC Dream Center in response to the crisis - will you help us raise $10k for the next 10,000 on this #GivingTuesdayNow? Give through the link in our bio, or text DREAM to 225-25!

Thrilled that @thisamerlife just won the very first #Pulitzer Prize ever given to audio journalism. For this episode: https://t.co/AKnJEm21UA

[Michael Skoler @mskoler]

Today's the day - join our #WeavingCommunity campaign to come out of this pandemic stronger and more connected than when we entered. Start a conversation using the guide in the link below as a way to be part of #GivingTuesdayNow. #LetsGoThere

[#WeavingCommunity @Weaving_US]

When we think about giving, we often think donations or volunteering. But generosity can be expressed in many different ways. Together w/ @GivingTuesday, we developed this guide to help you give the gift of conversation for #GivingTuesdayNow 💙#LetsGoThere https://t.co/AjHROmN7hv

This crisis has shown us the beauty of how we care for each other and the ugliness of our fragile, unequal society. @juliovincent says soon we'll be told to go out, shop & return to normal. Or we can grow from the pain & change our lives #WeavingCommunity https://t.co/E8PUXiNIle

[Michael Skoler @mskoler]

Many of us are going through the 5 stages of grief after losing a life that we *thought* was at least predictable, if not fair. #WeavingCommunity

[Weave: the Social Fabric Project @weavetheppl]

Denial: This virus won’t affect us. Anger: You’re making me stay home & taking away my activities. Bargaining: OK, if I social distance for 2 wks everything will be better, right? Sadness: I don’t know when this will end. Then acceptance #WeavingCommunity https://t.co/U6BFmO4Zlh?

Lovely essay from my new colleague on the @weavetheppl team, Frederick Riley. His mother shares hard-won wisdom about the value of #WeavingCommunity when a family faces crisis.

[Weave: the Social Fabric Project @weavetheppl]

A mom’s advice during crisis: you get more value from sharing what you have than by stockpiling for yourself. Weave’s ED @frederickjriley shares his mother’s life lessons on #WeavingCommunity during crisis and leading with love.

What is your advice? https://t.co/kvC4DRrKEK

[Michael Skoler @mskoler]

I'm #WeavingCommunity during crisis! Connect, converse, and care for your neighbors since we’re #InThisTogether. Visit https://t.co/1kyVoO7CcD and follow our campaign to ensure the pandemic drives us together, rather than driving us apart.

[Michael Skoler @mskoler]

Was challenged to show how I'm #WeavingCommunity during crisis by @USConvoProject & @GrahamBodie. I left welcome note, offer of help and bag of pistachios for new neighbor I haven't met. How are you #WeavingCommunity?

[Michael Skoler @mskoler]

Beautiful to see people, sometimes unlikely ones, showing up for others and #WeavingCommunity. Too bad it takes a pandemic to remind us how impt relationships are.

[Weave: the Social Fabric Project @weavetheppl]

Brooklyn landlord Mario Salerno canceled rent for hundreds of tenants. His message to them? “Just to look out for your neighbor and make sure that everyone has food on their table.” #WeavingCommunity https://t.co/ZpMtZTYZ4P

[Michael Skoler @mskoler]

So glad to have you as a partner in the #WeavingCommunity campaign. Here’s hoping many join us to ensure we don’t forget the lesso of this crisis: Our social connection and relationships are the center of our lives. Deepening them will heal ourselves and the world.

Jim Valvano, in his iconic speech before death, said "If you laugh, think and cry, that's a heck of a day." Our #WeavingCommunity During Crisis leadership team moved me to do all three in the span of an hour. I'm thankful for them #WeavingCommunity with me https://t.co/pQpK44qlQL
