Auriga Cohran hasn't added a story.
Hello,
My name is Auriga. I am a 57 year old dress designer with over 40 years experience behind the sewing machine. Since the beginning of our American encounter with Covid-19 I have produced and distributed over 2000 free reusable face masks in the City of Chicago and in my hometown of Lansing Illinois. I have gone as far as I can go using my own money.
It has come to my attention that there is a severe shortage of PPE in the Roseland community of Chicago and I would like to do something about it.
While only 4.8 square miles in area and 13 short miles from Chicago’s Loop, Roseland is an African American low-income community home to over 1000 cases of Covid 19.
The level of despair and hopelessness is so thick that you could cut
it with a knife. Help me help them.
You can make a difference. Your $15 donation will provide two, 3
layer reusable face masks to a Roseland resident. One to wear and one
to wash. We know that face masks are a critical tool in our fight to
contain Covid 19. Many Roseland residents are so low income that the
$1 face mask is unattainable.
In 30 days I can produce 1500 face masks and help 750 people. With your help I will produce in October, November and December with distribution on Halloween, Black Friday and Christmas Day.
1500 face masks cost $11,250.00. This brings my total fundraising goal to $33,750.00
Please join me in this life saving endeavor.
