These are the kinds of daily texts and messages that I get from family and some of my best friends working on the frontlines in our hospitals. I worry like crazy about them EVERY DAY of this pandemic. Imagine if it was your mother, father, sister, brother, spouse, or best friend texting you like this. What would you do? How would you feel? You’d want to help of course and do anything you can to help protect them so they can protect others. Last week I posted about my own mother’s scary situation as a nurse at a hospital in NJ which right now has the 2nd highest number of Corona Virus cases in the US. The shortage of protective personal equipment (PPE) is still a major problem so for the past week I’ve been working with @theserenagoh to find a smarter way to help! That’s how @themaskfund was born. We’ve just launched our fundraiser today to raise money so that we can bring Personal Protective Equipment (“PPE”) from the factories to the frontlines. 100% of donations will be spent on purchasing and distributing masks to the medical professionals in the United States. You can find all the info on our fundraiser page as well as how you can donate via the link in my profile. I’ll also share this in my stories. We’re all in this together, so let’s just not leave it to those on the frontlines. Please donate and share so we can do our part as well! Thank you so much to everyone for your support in this and to all the healthcare workers around the world for your service! Tag your friends in the comments and let’s help spread the word! ❤️ #TheMaskFund #GetMePPE (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-fbb4knndG/?igshid=2r0bhllqwovb
