Its extraordinary. In so you the need is so great can you tell me a little bit more about that because people have been really struggling San Francisco during this pandemic yeah, i mean for folks who are stepping in unsafe going out because you know they are elderly and they are concerned about covid its all the more important to you know someone was saying today that might be the only contact that that a senior may have with someone today on thanksgiving. So this is you know that a little different from the new level of nutrition but also just at the level of having human contact. So and we know you know its seniors but lots of folks are struggling with Food Insecurity right now in organizations like Salvation Army and others are doing incredible work. To get food to folks who otherwise would not have it. And have you volunteered with them before i have i was last year was a very different experience or you know or have met turkeys and doing things that help a little more like traditional thanksgiving, but wonderful that they have figured out a way to keep you know to do that work in a in a safe, a covidsafe way.

And any message for the people of San Francisco on this beautiful thanksgiving, you know its been a tough 2021 that we all hope will be better but i think its really important that people continue to help each other out. You know we dont know whats going to be happening with federal stimulus money but theres a lot of folks who are really worried about the next couple of months are going to be like so we need to help each other and come together as a city.
