But the pandemic also demonstrated the charitable, solidary, and fraternal spirit of the Portuguese-American community of New England, as highlighted by Francisco Resendes.<\/p>\n<p>Several Portuguese-Americans have organized acts of solidarity such as the production of masks and the delivery of meals in New Bedford, Massachusetts. And many of the professionals at the forefront fighting the COVID-19 pandemic, including doctors, nurses, police officers, and firefighters, are of Portuguese origin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#allhelpcounts
