Please, Shelter at Home
First and foremost, please heed the statewide order to shelter at home and adhere to social distancing. Gov. Newsom and local public health officials have released definitive guidelines. See Solano County's Shelter at Home order. This is the best way to stop the spread of COVID-19. The fewer of our friends, neighbors and loved ones who become ill, the more resources will be available to care for those who are infected.

Give to Local Blood Banks
