Time

"Help is even being offered from across the ocean, as over two dozen countries have stepped forward to offer financial and material support to the American people."
People

"There are things we can all do to help, including carpooling and traveling only when necessary, in order to save gas during this time. However, there is also something more important which we can all do: buy only the gas which you need."

Nation
