As coronavirus spreads across the globe, state and local governments are banning large events, and companies are playing their part in encouraging or mandating that all employees who can work from home, to stem the tide of the virus. One unfortunate side effect of this is that companies are having to cancel or postpone volunteer engagements with groups they often supported in person.
