钛媒体 4 月 14 日消息,随着新冠病毒大流行导致旧金山湾区的经济崩溃,谷歌正在为该地区的 5000 个家庭筹集资金。
谷歌在上周日表示,该公司旗下慈善部门 Google.org 和公司 CEO 桑达尔·皮查伊(Sundar Pichai)将分别向慈善组织 GiveDirecly 捐赠 100 万美元,这个组织向参与美国联邦营养援助计划 SNAP 的家庭提供现金。双方合作的目标是筹集 500 万美元资金,每个家庭都能分到 1000 美元。
据 GiveDirecly 网站介绍,该组织将向旧金山湾区受新冠病毒影响最大的家庭提供资金。截至周一,筹资金额已达 245 万美元。
Titanium media reported on April 14 that Google is raising money for 5000 families in the San Francisco Bay Area as the new coronavirus pandemic led to the economic collapse of the area.
Google said on Sunday that its charity google.org and its CEO, Sundar Pichai, will each donate $1 million to givedirectly, a charity that provides cash to families participating in the U.S. federal nutrition assistance program snap. The goal of the cooperation is to raise 5 million US dollars, and each family can share 1000 US dollars.
The group will fund families in the bay area most affected by the new coronavirus, according to givedirecly. As of Monday, it had raised $2.45 million.
