Masks arrived in St Louis today! From here most will travel on to Minneapolis, Chicago, Champaign-Urbana, Grand Rapids, Indianapolis, Cinncinnati, Kansas City, Nashville, Knoxville, and Tulsa!
We are so close to our goal! Thank you to everyone who has donated and shared! This is to get over hundreds of thousands of masks to over 30 mask blocs around the U.S.
Updated fundraiser goal! More blocs and more transportation means more costs to cover, but also more communities receiving free masks! GFM: www.gofundme.com/f/bulk-kn95-...
Happy trans day of visibility! Trans people are disproportionately impacted by COVID, and are at higher risks for complications of COVID - including long COVID - than cis people. Show your solidarity for our trans selves and siblings today and every day by wearing your masks 😷
More progress! Keep sharing so we can get to our goal for over 200,000 masks for more than 10 blocs!
"It is painful beyond imagination that so many- even close loved ones- are perfectly happy to cosplay normal even if that normal involves vulnerable groups’ long-term exclusion from public spaces. It is grief on top of injustice on top of dangerous physical harm."
NPR tacitly endorses the removal of Long COVID sufferers from public life
If we don't win this auction, we will look into others, as many institutions have been auctioning off their ppe stockpiles recently. If we don't find another auction opportunity in a timely manner, funds will be reimbursed through GFM.
They will go to maskblocdc, maskblocnyc, MaskBlocStLouis, cripfutures513, maskblocnova, FightCovidNOLAand co, vidsafecu, to be distributed for free to our communities.
