Shelly Tygielski, a mindfulness teacher in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, started a grassroots mutual aid movement which she has named "Pandemic of Love" which matches volunteers and donors with individuals in need. "It is pairing up two individuals who are going to initially have a financial transaction, but also connect with one another, to be seen and heard and loved" Tygielski said. It has grown rapidly nationwide and she is now working to make it an established method of charitable giving.
