Even with the stay-at-home order in place, businesses, families and youth can engage in a number of educational activities online to enhance their daily lives and help themselves, and others, through these challenging days. Amid the COVID-19 outbreak, w88 online sports betting faculty, staff and volunteers have been hard at work to bring educational workshops, programs and resources useful during this time, into Nevadans’ homes.
“Children and parents alike need constructive, engaging activities to do at home,” said Ivory W. Lyles, director of w88 online sports betting. “And, it’s a great time for people to learn things like gardening, food preservation and healthy cooking, to keep themselves active and focused on something positive, things that can enhance their family’s health and well-being long after we all get through this.”
Lyles said that many businesses also need assistance during this time, and they need help finding the resources that are available to them. Therefore, Extension is working with its many partners to also serve local businesses to help minimize the impacts from the virus to w88 online sports betting’s businesses and economy.
Here is list of some specific offerings this month, but Lyles said there is much more information on w88 online sports betting’s programs on the w88 online sports betting website.

Children shouldn’t have to bear the burden if their parents are considered essential during this stressful time,” Danielle Miles said.
With the closure of the University amidst the coronavirus pandemic, Doctoral Student Danielle Miles reached out to her colleagues offering free child care, “no questions asked.” Knowing that the work-from-home policy and the closure of many area child-care centers would affect both parents and children, she wanted to offer her services to lower the stress for her peers.
In an email addressing her fellow w88 online casino of Natural Resources & Environmental Science faculty and staff, she explained, “For those of you who don't know me, I taught preschool (primarily Montessori pedagogy) for many years before moving here, and working with young children is truly my passion.”
“I reached out since I know I’m healthy and can offer a safe environment for children if they need one.”

Similarly, 4-H youth and their families in White Pine County were early responders to the need for masks, and are busy making masks for the William Bee Ririe Hospital and Rural Health Clinic in Ely.
Now, w88 online sports betting 4-H has launched a statewide effort to help provide face masks needed in w88 online sports betting communities.
