COVID-19 Friendship Circle Update

Categories: Friendship Circle
COVID-19 Update from the Friendship Circle:
The Friendship Circle of Pittsburgh is focused on taking precautions to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and keep our staff, participants, and community safe. As a result, we are canceling all in-person programming scheduled through the end of March. We remain committed to facilitating meaningful social interactions, and to do so, we are developing fun and innovative online opportunities for our friends to stay connected over the next few weeks.
We are continuing to closely monitor and follow the recommendations of the CDC, Allegheny County Health Department, and the City of Pittsburgh. We will update you with any changes as they become available.
The Friendship Circle has been and continues to be, a beacon of light in our lives. As we know, friendship can break barriers, and this barrier is no different. Although this is a difficult time around the world, we must have faith that, G-d willing, we will continue to share in friendship and move forward together.
