We are collecting masks and monetary donations to purchase child-sized face masks in support of families undergoing treatment at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP).
Over 1,050 masks secured YTD. Thanks to all who have donated! Much more work to do...!
If you are interested in supporting this cause, there are three ways you can help:
#1 Making masks? You can donate some. All masks donated in-kind will be inspected, packaged and delivered to Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP)
#2 Purchase some of artwork. All art sale proceeds will go to this cause for the remainder of 2020. Click here to explore most of my inventory.
#3 Making charitable donations this year? You can give directly to this cause. Monetary Contributions may be tax deductible through the LIV Foundation COVID Response Fund. Here is a link to the #GivingTuesday Contribution Page for this cause on #Facebook.
CHOP is well equipped but they anticipate the need for child sized masks will be a long-term need. All patients and all visiting siblings will be required to wear them for the foreseeable future. We are essentially helping them grow their strategic stockpiles.
Any tightly woven cotton, such as a dress shirt, sheet, or similar material will do!
The 7.5" by 5" child sized masks are preferred. You can use a simpler pattern if you find one. Several of our supporters have adapted this pattern by simply removing some or all of the pleats.
Here are some recently created paintings that are available for sale.
Thank you so much! So many people in our communities are or have been treated at this incredible institution. Please help us pay it forward and help stop the spread of COVID-19.
