Magento Community Coming Together

We all know that these are some crucial times. Covid19 is now affecting more 190 countries globally and its like a Virtual World War against an enemy we cannot see. Every walk of life is impacted by this. It’s no news to anyone that situation is really bad and the only possible way (as of now) to beat this enemy is by practicing Social(physical) distancing.

But this time also calls upon us to be more connected virtually. “What can’t kill you makes you stronger”. We have to come out of this together as a Strong, Intelligent, Emotionally motivated and highly connected community. I have been seeing a lot of people coming together to support Merchants and Community during this phase. This shows how we can be virtually connected and still ensure mutual success for the community we belong to.

I reached out to a few people from the community to see what level of support they are willing to extend to support merchants/community and as I believed the response was very positive with all of them being happy to support. Thus, I thought to write this blog to bring a collective list of the offerings that different companies from Magento Companies are giving. There are some Discounts and Offers that are already there which I have enlisted in this blog so that someone reading this blog can get a full list of all the offers and discounts available from our Wonderful Community during this time of Crisis.
