Volunteer: Mask Up, Meals on Wheels!Interfaith Ministries' Meals on Wheels Program needs your help to provide a cloth, reusable mask to each of our Meals on Wheels seniors. A standard, adult-sized mask, with soft ear loops, is recommended. We will need to have them in small bags, to ease distribution. If you prefer to bring them to us, ready to be sent out, please include bagging them, individually, in a bag that lays flat during transport (a sandwich sized baggie – either paper or plastic – should be perfect. Target sells some paper ones that are biodegradable). Feel free to get creative with cute designs, so long as we steer clear of any religious or political messaging. We serve a broad audience, so we recommend keeping it to inclusive and happy things. If you’re unsure, solid colors or striped/paisley/gingham patters are always a safe bet. The Details: Purchase festive, colorful, or themed fabric and make as many adult-sized masks as you like. Note: We serve people of all faiths, including those of no particular faith, as well as folks from all cultural backgrounds and political affiliations. Please avoid religious or political patterns, wording, and designs. Here's is some helpful information from the CDC regarding homemade masks: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/how-to-make-cloth-face-covering.html Place completed cloth, reusable masks into a sandwich-sized, sealed bag. This will minimize the number of hands that come into direct contact with the face mask between donation and distribution to our seniors. We will still advise that they wash them before wearing.OR Purchase adult-sized cloth, reusable masks online or at the store. Most major retailers have some for sale these days. If the masks came several to a package, please bag individually, to help us with distribution.Email Lauren at llewis@imgh.org with any questions or to arrange drop-off of your donation. We encourage you to get your networks involved and work together to create or gather these needed items! Social distancing doesn't mean we can't work together! Items can be dropped off to our Meals on Wheels Distribution Facility at 3202 San Jacinto, 77004. Ideal drop-off times are between 11 AM and 1 PM on weekdays.
