Petition Action

People with salaries if they work or not to contribute to those on low/no wages

Petition Details

To enable people who will receive a salary during this crisis to contribute to a hardship fund to people who will receive no or lower salaries.

Additional Information

I think many people want to help but are unsure how to. A fund could be created and people could contribute via their banks. The money could be used to provide concrete help for people in financial trouble due to isolation or being unable to work.
