Some local technology companies have joined together to help support relief efforts for COVID-19.
The Closed Door, Open Hearts campaign-which originated from a task force facilitated by NATI- is being put off by companies in the local tech sector who have been well positioned to continue operations during the crisis.
In response to the #COVID19 pandemic, several socially conscious local tech companies have joined forces to commence the Closed Door, Open Heart initiative. #technl #covidnfld #closeddooropenhearthttps://t.co/N1ilAZZHYY pic.twitter.com/NH5kRf5lel

Mimi Sheriff is the Corporate Social Responsibility Lead for the True Blue Committee at Blue Drop.
She says the program encourages businesses who are able to find ways to support the community during this time.
She notes those companies know the future is uncertain during these times, so while they have the means to do so they want to try to help out.
Over $200,000 has been raised so far.
