Face Masks going to St. Catharines General ICU

Description

My sister Jamie and I who are both in the Medical Science program have set up a box on our front porch where we put the masks we have made. We posted that we were making masks on Facebook and received hundreds of responses. We have already sent out multiple to Toronto and are continuing to make masks throughout the exam period. In the box in the picture, a nurse from St Catharines General ICU requested 20 of them to place under their N95’s to reduce redness as well as multiple orders for elderly parents and healthcare workers. We made 20 for our friends at Food Basics Fonthill and many for our parents’ friends. There is no price on the masks, so people can donate how much they see fit. We are not pocketing the money but are reinvesting it into more material and supplies. In total we have made over 70 masks and are making more daily as supplies last.
