DIY MASKS FOR OUR HOSPITALS
Due to the COVID-19 crisis, many hospitals are quickly running out of necessary protective equipment to protect workers. We’re helping coordinate a network of makers to provide hospitals with hand-made face masks following CDC guidelines.
FAQ
How does the system work?
Volunteer makers pledge a certain number of masks to sew and we coordinate with them to get the masks sent to the hospitals in most need.Which hospitals are the masks going to?
All masks are going to hospitals who have reached out to us in need of extra PPE. Hospitals are put on a rotation based on need.Are you sure the masks can be used?
These masks are intended to be used for lower-risk patient care situations to make N95's more readily available for high-risk care or as a last resort. Hospitals are required to sign off on understanding this.Maker Resources
