Hi all!
Those of you out there in the US who still need masks but can't obtain them for whatever reason can request free, postage paid, hand-made, non-medical grade, reusable, cloth masks at MaskHelpers (See ->
here). The Des Moines, Iowa based non-profit organization is offering a free networking service to connect those who need masks to those who are willing to donate the postage cost and their time into crafting free masks (See ->
here. MaskHelpers' network also connects people who can donate mask materials or funds to mask makers. See their website for more information). To request free masks, just fill out MaskHelper's online form ->
here. Note: The mask makers use their own materials and postage, so please only request the actual amount of masks that you will truly need! Also, there is currently a backlog of several weeks for requests to be fulfilled due to the sheer amount of requests. If you can't wait then you can alternatively search for a free cloth mask distribution center near you via MaskHelpers (See ->
here). Now get a mask on your face and stay safe!
