Help Adam make Safety Masks to Fight COVID-19
Hello friends and family!
It has come to my attention that I am in a position to help and contribute to our community amidst the COVID-19 crisis.
I am answering a call for help from the Vancouver General Hospital who are requesting for these masks.
“We are very low on equipment, everyone at Vancouver General Hospital has to wear a mask and face shield. These face shields are needed more than ever because they can be reused,” said Leonel Leyson, a registered nurse for intensive care unit patients at Vancouver General Hospital, in a statement. [1]
My name is Adam and I am a graduating engineering student with a passion and experience in fabrication, particularly of CNC fabrication and 3D Printing.
I am in the position of having the necessary tools and equipment to make these safety masks / face shields that are designed and engineered in the Czech Republic and are currently used by doctors and medical professionals around the world with the ongoing battle against the virus.
I am here asking you to help me raise money to procure materials to make these safety equipment. My goal is to fabricate between 50 and 100 masks per month. I anticipate that each masks will cost between $5 and $10 to make. Details of these masks are provided in the link below. [2]
If there are any money left over, they will be donated to the Red Cross.
You too can help by donating what you can.
Even a few dollars help.
And please share this to your friends and family!
Lets do this!
Sincerely,
Adam Nguyen
