WE NEED YOUR HELP!

Sponsor a seamstress to make masks to help combat COVID-19. Gloria Horn Sewing Studio has over 100 volunteers ready to get sewing, they just need the supplies! Your donation will go towards mask kits (containing the highest quality fabric proven to be effective towards blocking COVID-19) that will be distributed to seamstresses and then delivered to local hospitals, first responders, nursing homes, food bank volunteers and others.

UPDATE: We have received an overwhelming number of requested from Police Departments and we need more funds. The City of Pittsburgh Police Department needs 1,300 masks to keep their police force safe! Last week, NYPD reported that 1 in 6 police officers were on sick leave or quarantine related to COVID-19. New York City was also experiencing an uptick in crime. WE WILL NOT LET THIS HAPPEN TO PITTSBURGH! Let’s get every officer across the country a mask!

We have already donated over 7,000 masks to organizations including:
St. Clair Hospital
Magee Womens Hospital
VA Hospital Oakland
Asbury Heights
Baptist Home
Pittsburgh Food Bank
AHN Hospice
City of Pittsburgh Police Department
Mt. Lebanon Police Department
South Park Police Department
Jefferson Hills Police Department
Dormont Police Department
Baltimore County Police Department
Johns Hopkins Hospital
VA Hospital Baltimore

If you would like to specify an organization for your masks to be donated to, please let us know! Each dollar donated guarantees at least one mask.
