We have just reached an absolutely incredible milestone! With the help and hard work of our many volunteers we have donated over 150,000 face shields to frontline medical workers! This is a huge achievement, but our task is not over, we still have a backlog of requests we are working hard to fill. We are still accepting donations to help us donate more shields to the heroes that need them. Every little bit helps!
We are super excited to announce that Amazon has committed to providing each of 10k Frames, Shields, and Foam pieces to our group. Additionally, they have paid for injection-molding tooling that we can utilize to order additional components using our donor-raised funds.
Hello contributors! Did you know that any donation and volunteer time can be matched by Microsoft*? This means that if you are a full-time employee of Microsoft in the US, you can get your donations to this effort matched dollar for dollar (up to the annual limit) and if you have volunteered your time to this effort, you can track those hours as well.
GREAT news: we have NIH approval!!!!! ๐๐๐For the past several weeks, this highly talented group of makers have been iterating on visor designs that not only needed to meet an array of governmental requirements but also provide a comfortable fit for 12+ hour shifts.
1,060 units shipped to healthcare professionals today! That's a running total of 5,161 units confirmed delivered.
Thank you for considering supporting this campaign. We are heartened by the time, resources, and energy our volunteers have spent on making sure our front line healthcare workers are taken care of during this pandemic. So many people have stepped up to share their love and labor to get us to where we are now. Itโs been a wild ride so far, and weโre just two weeks in!
