Get Counted!
Once a decade, America comes together to count every resident in the United States, creating national awareness of the importance of the census and its valuable statistics. It counts our population and households, providing the basis for reapportioning congressional seats, redistricting, and distributing more than $675 billion in federal funds to support states, counties and communities’ vital programs — impacting education, fire and emergency response services, transportation, employment, housing, health care and public policy.
By April 1, every home will receive an invitation to participate in the 2020 Census. You will have the following options for responding: online at https://my2020census.gov/ or call the Census Bureau hotline at 844-330-2020.
Individuals that have limited access to internet; that have questions about the census; or need assistance completing the survey should call the Census Bureau hotline at 844-330-2020.
The Census Bureau has revised timelines and now suggests home visits will not be made by census workers until late May, so there is still plenty of time to complete your survey. A self-response is the best response to prevent a home visit, whether that be online or by phone.

PPE DONATIONS
Due to the national pandemic, there is currently a shortage of medical personal protective equipment, specifically N95 masks. The Winnebago-Boone Farm Bureau and Conserv FS (Caledonia and Rockford) are participating in F.A.R.M. for Health, which is a movement that stands for Farmers and Ranchers Masks for Health. We are calling upon farmers, grain elevators, union laborers, construction companies, and anyone else in the industry where masks are used for PPE, to donate SURPLUS new/unused masks and any other PPE.
Your safety when delivering masks is critical to us. Drop off locations are available for Boone County at Conserv FS, 14937 Rt.76, Caledonia, IL and Winnebago County at Conserv FS, 1925 S Meridian Rd, Rockford. A drop box is located just outside the office entrance where you can simply open the tote and drop them off. Masks will then be distributed where needed.
N95 masks will look like this image above but may come in a variety of colors and options.
Due to the shelter in place order, we ask that you only get out to drop off masks if you feel your trip is considered essential travel. That decision will be at your best judgment. Thank you for whatever part you can do for those helping keep us safe during this challenging and unprecedented time.
For more information, please contact the Winnebago-Boone Farm Bureau at 815-962-0653 or via email at wbfbmanager@live.com.
