WHAT IS #MASKS4MIGRANTS?
The Masks4Migrants campaign is a collaboration of nonprofits working together to raise $75,000 to donate and distribute 20,000 reusable face masks to migrant women and families. These masks are sustainably and ethically produced by Indigenous women artisans in rural Guatemala, offering critical revenue to the region and stability for families. Many of the families receiving masks hail from the communities they were handcrafted in – renewing a sense of hope across borders.
#Masks4Migrants launched on Friday, March 5th and the founding members are Justice for Migrant Women (@mujerxsrising), the Hispanic Heritage Foundation (@hispanicheritage), This Is About Humanity (@thisisabouthumanity), and Mercado Global (@mercadoglobal).
