Shortages in masks and other personal protective equipment take an extra toll on elders amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the
recommendation from CDC of wearing mask in public, the seniors have difficulty sourcing masks in stores.
The Bay Area Mask Project was initialized by a group of dedicated volunteers to help our community fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. We are making reusable masks for those who are in need the most. Our goal is to make 1,200 masks by mid-May and 2000 by July.
