Facebook says new Community Help feature is now available in Romania too

Facebook announces that the new Community Help feature, a destination for people to help their neighbours most impacted by COVID-19, is now available in Romania too. The new feature, adapted for the current pandemic,  is part of the company’s efforts to make it easier for people to request or offer help to their neighbours and donate to fundraisers.

The new Community Help was launched globally on March 31 and is also available for users in Romania, who can access it in the Information Center or by visiting: facebook.com/covidsupport. There they can request or offer help to their neighbours and donate to fundraisers for relief efforts. For example, people can use Community Help for everything from delivering groceries to elderly neighbours to volunteering to distribute food through local food banks.

To date, more than 1 billion people were connected with resources from health authorities through the Information Center and educational pop-ups on Facebook and Instagram, and more than 100 million of those people clicked through to learn more from these sources directly.
