Masks For All: Front line Hero's First
Donation protected
Please donate TODAY to help us provide the protective gear our local San Jose and Bay Area healthcare providers so desperately need.
We have direct access to mask manufacturers in China through personal connections. We want to leverage this and contribute to fighting the spread of COVID-19.
As our healthcare system strains to accommodate the high number of patients with the coronavirus, our medical community urgently needs our help. Doctors and nurses are reusing masks, and have resorted to pleading with the public to provide homemade versions that don’t offer the protection required.
Each dollar donated to this GoFundMe campaign provides two protective masks. 100% of donated funds will be used provide masks to frontline medical providers and first responders as well as employees at hospitals, retirement homes, and shelters. By leveraging existing manufacturing and distribution relationships, we seek to provide more than 100,000 masks to area personnel by early April.
The world is facing unprecedented challenges. This call to action is URGENT. Thank you for donating today.
Who we are:
Benoit Herve, Entrepreneur with direct connections in China who is working to help our community during these most challenging times. Benoit is CEO and founder of San Jose, CA based Le Bread Xpress.
