Can't Stop, Won't Stop Making Masks For PPE
Sewing Masks & Our Contribution to PPE Masks
With
the generous donation from Birch Organic Fabrics, Fabricworm shipped
several requests totaling over 550 yards of cotton woven fabrics for
mask makers and organizations this year. Over 5,220 general mask and N95
mask covers have been sewn and donated for front line workers and
essential employees from California to New York! That's incredible!
Thank you to the makers and people who have donated time, or organized
the distribution efforts. We. See. You. Thank you so much for sewing. These images below are just some of the ones sent in to us or tagged us from Instagram and Facebook. Volunteers are from all over the US and still continue to sew masks for requests.
"Fabricworm's 100 yard donation inspired our Million Mask
Challenge group to create the Sew Ready Kit program. Local sewists
request a kit of precut fabric and elastic or twill, and we prepare the
kit for pick-up or delivery. We worked through the Birch Organic fabric
in April and May. We have continued the program with weekly kits and
have now sent out over 16,000 precut mask and
scrub cap kits. I credit your donation with pushing us to action to
figure out how best to mobilize volunteers and distribute kits so that masks could be sewn as quickly as possible to fill area healthcare requests.
One
last note: I regret that I do not have photos from healthcare workers
to share. Any "thank you" photos have been few, but every mask
that we handed out filled a direct request from a healthcare provider,
front line worker, or other essential personnel in the Washington, D.C.
region. I am truly thankful for your generous involvement in the early
weeks of need."
