Small groups creating ways to fight COVID-19
Small groups are currently getting together throughout Kansas and thinking up small projects they can work on to stop the spread of COVID-19.
The Beat the Virus Campaign is being led by the Kansas Leadership Center, which is trying to hold 1,000 virtual community meetings in Kansas by Dec. 31.
So far, more than 460 meetings have been completed, and the organization still would like to try to get to 1,000 meetings by Dec. 31.
According to Ed O’Malley, president and CEO of the Kansas Leadership Center, the goal is to mobilize communities to mount a collective challenge to COVID-19. He spoke during the University of Kansas Health System’s Thursday morning news conference.
