Capt. Robert Kalamaras says with local businesses struggling, the campaign is a great way to encourage the community to show it's support while also promoting social distancing.
"This is unprecedented time that we've never seen before and I think it's gonna take a village. Not to sound cliche but it's gonna take a village to do this. And [in] order to do that, it's gonna be a community supporting each other, and we'll all get through this together," Kalamaras says.
Police also say the Chamber of Commerce has posted a list of all the Fairfield restaurants where you can still order for curbside pickup.
