Healthcare workers are at the front lines of the pandemic. To help reduce the shortage of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), we began producing and donating low-cost equipment to frontline healthcare workers.
So far we have shipped over 700 face shields, but have had requests in the thousands from frontline hospitals in Texas, New York City, and Washington.
These face shields provide an an extra layer of protection over traditional medical masks. They will protect workers from aerosols and splashes. This is vital for those on the front lines.
Right now, we can make 150 face shields/day. With your help we can accelerate this effort considerably through the purchase of additional equipment. In addition to face shields we have the supply chain in place to produce other PPE Equipment such as Intubation/Aerosol Boxes. If we can meet our goals, we expect to ship at least 3,000 Face Shields nationwide.
If you know a healthcare worker in need of PPE they can request it through our website: https://provideourheroes.com/
Please consider giving at the following levels or more:
-$5 will help produce 3+ face shields
- $20 will help produce 15-20 face shields
- $100 will help produce 75-100 face shields or an Intubation Box
- $200 will help produce 150-200 face shields or 2 Intubation Boxes
- $500 will help produce 450-500 face shields or 5 Intubation Boxes

All donations are tax deductible and corporate matchable (see below). Your donations will also help cover shipping costs to those outside the Houston area.

We have partnered with Lumikha 3D, an experienced contract manufacturing and design company with locations in Massachusetts and Texas.
OUR STORY
As college students, we felt helpless in the fight against this pandemic. We wanted to do our part somehow. So, we partnered with manufacturing companies to organize supply chain to make this initiative possible.
Despite this, we still need the capital to provide for such a high demand from hospitals is limited. With your help we can make more PPE.
