Free Mask Giveaways

Elisha Rush • August 14, 2020

Working together to distribute FREE face masks to the greater Morgantown community. 

After seeing a real need in our region for free, accessible, reusable face masks I decided to team up with local crafters, activists, and organizations to distribute washable fabric masks to anyone who would like one. In our first giveaway we were able to hand out 156 masks to those who needed them. Currently I am organizing one event per month in the greater Morgantown region. 

Mask Giveaway Dates:
July 18th - Retro-Tique - 10am-4pm
August 16th - Pizza Al's Evansdale - 11am-5pm
September 18th - First Presbyterian Church (downtown) - 1pm-7pm
October 17th - Black Bear Stadium - 11am-1pm
