United Way of the CSRA and the Community Foundation for the CSRA partnered with Carole Fabrics to launch Mask It Up CSRA, an effort to raise funds to provide high quality cloth face masks for local first responders, essential workers and vulnerable populations living in the CSRA.

While many of us get to work from home, first responders like medical personnel, essential workers at child care facilities and grocery stores, elderly individuals or those with pre-existing medical conditions, and other vulnerable populations continue to be at risk.

A $5 donation to the Mask It Up CSRA campaign produces one high-quality, cloth protective face mask for someone in our community who needs it most. Each face mask is made by local employees at Carole Fabrics. People can visit uwcsra.org/facemask to make a gift to this campaign.
