Face Shield Supplies

Donation protected
I have heard from many of my family friends who are doctors about the lack of PPE needed to protect themselves and patients as COVID-19 continues to spread. In order to help or at least provide a possible alternative for these supplies, I have started making face shield at home. One of our friends who is a  doctor has already confirmed that this would be useful for her unit. In order to make many of these shields, however, and be able to supply these to hospitals, it would be great if I could get some donations to help pay for the supplies. Since each shield costs about $2 to make, my goal for now is to raise at least $200. Thanks so much for helping out!!

update: Thank you so much for the generous responses! I have now updated my goal to $500 in the hopes of being able to contribute more.

update #2: Face shields were delivered to Edward Hospital in Naperville last week! I am currently in touch with Advocate and Northwest Community Hospital. If you know of any other hospitals that are need of masks and face shields, please contact me through Facebook messenger or iMessage. I have organized a group who will help me make more of these masks and face shields, and if you are willing to join let me know. We could always use more help!(4/25/20)

update #3: I have since delivered 50 face shields and 200 masks to hospitals! Face shields were sent to Lurie Children's Hospital and masks were donated to Northwest Community Hospital and Dr. Rubin's Mini Medical School.  Please contact me if you know of any locations that are in need of additional PPE.
