The COVID-19 pandemic has presented many challenges for nonprofits, especially organizations that work directly with vulnerable populations, like Sunday Breakfast Rescue Mission, the oldest and largest homeless shelter in Philadelphia. While testing and vaccinations have helped slow the spread of COVID-19, the risk for organizations like ours is still high.
