Days for Girls’ Masks4Millions Campaign
From their web site: “Our emails and phone lines have been flooded with requests for face masks to distribute to medical personnel and patients around the world. Those who know Days for Girls know that we have 70,000 volunteers, and a majority of them are sewers, so these calls are not a surprise. We are ready to pivot to answer the need!
As a global community that has a long history of stepping up to challenges, we are calling on all of you to help respond to this critical need. Join us to participate in the DfG Masks4Millions campaign. Our goal is to provide millions of masks to hospitals and clinics around the world.”

Send food delivery
Many restaurants are closed with only take-out and delivery options and many workers are working long days, burning the candle on both ends. If you can, please reach out to hospitals and clinics to coordinate sending food for those on the front lines. This will also help the area restaurants that are struggling to stay in business. Win win! Here are some ideas:
FullerNutriFuel, Seattle’s #1 Meal Prep company has been donating meals to hospitals and families in need. They are offering 10% off your first order.
Uber Eats is offering $0 Delivery Fee
Caviar is offering a no-contact delivery
Instacart offers low cost grocery delivery
