Masks Without Borders

Join our Covid Surge relief effort! All around the world, people’s lives have been drastically changed by the pandemic. Inspired to make a global difference, Chicago Fair Trade, The Soondra Foundation and Work + Shelter joined forces to create the Masks Without Borders campaign. We hope to unite hard hit communities in our hometown of Chicago with communities in India through mask donations, specifically 10,000 sustainable cloth masks to those in need. We need your help- donate now to prevent the spread of COVID-19!
