Masks for Austin's Homeless
Austin's Homeless have been hit hard by COVID-19. Estimates predict a 40-45% increase in homelessness nationwide by the end of 2020. (Study by Dr. Brendan O'Flaherty, Columbia University). Since unhoused people are more at risk for COVID-19 than housed people, the increase in the size of the homeless population will likely prolong the health crisis.' StreetSenseMedia.org
Our goal is to produce 5,000 face masks for them by raising $35,000 to cover material and labor costs. Masks will be produced in Austin with turnaround times in as little as two weeks.
