ABOUT US
COVID-19 is a huge hurdle to overcome, but wearing masks when outside is a simple and effective way to protect our communities together.
The CDC now recommends wearing a face covering any time you go out in public. These fabric masks can help protect you in places like supermarkets or pharmacies where it's harder to keep a safe six-foot distance from other shoppers.
This works best if everyone wears them because people who don't have any symptoms can still be spreading the virus.
Our mission is to empower the public to help stop the spread of Coronavirus by wearing a mask outdoors.
