I got this email from a colleague. If anyone has N95 masks they can donate, I will put you in contact. Thank you, and be safe everyone! ISOLATE, Stay Healthy!

"I am reaching out to all of my friends that have a connection to the set design industry or entertainment industry to see if they have access to N95 masks, gloves, or face shields. One of my friends is an Infectious Disease specialist who is fearing for her life and the lives of healthcare workers everywhere. She said they might have enough Personal Protective Equipment to get through the next 6-7 days. The infection rate has yet to peak. Her hospital is “rationing” equipment and many workers feel unsafe. The CDC just made a recommendation for doctors and staff to bring in their own bandannas and scarves if and when the masks run out.
Let me know if you or someone you know has access to any of these items, especially N95 masks. If donation of these items is not an option, I can gladly set up a gofundme link and do some fundraising to purchase these items as well.
Absolutely no worries if you don’t have any access to these items. Be well and take good care!"
