ANGELIC THREADS - Free Reusable Masks
Donation protected
Angelic Threads 2020 is a voluntary community group created in response to the Coronavirus 19 outbreak to develop reusable face masks for the residents in Glasgow. The masks are distributed ‘free of charge’ to residents, community agencies, key services, care homes, food banks, the medical profession and those most in need across the city
Volunteers sew the face masks and help us source material, though donations by residents, which are recycled into masks. Recycling material allows us to help the environment and deliver mask free of charge.
Since launching on 8th April 2020 we have made and distributed over 1,000 masks but the demand is increasing especially as more people are going out as we come out of lockout. Volunteers have covered any additional costs to run the project to the stage but now need to raise funds to continue and deliver the increasing demand for masks.
ALL the money will be used to:
- purchase essential items which are not available through donations.
- make and distribute the masks, free of charge to those that request them across the city (Glasgow).
- help set up sewing hubs in other cities to provide the same service to residents in that area.
Have a look at our Facebook page (Angelic Threads 2020) to see what we have done and how much this project is needed.
