Project Mask

Dear Members,

As announced earlier, our SVR book discussion has been

postponed until further notice.

Meanwhile, amidst this COVID-19 crisis, our core group members have risen to the occasion and have dedicated themselves to community service.

PROJECT MASK: Earlier last week, we were approached by a medical professional connected with Stroke Awareness Foundation, asking for help with masks – and this started our Project Mask! Our members have been buying fabric and sewing masks relentlessly and selflessly by putting a lot of hours into this tedious task, and then delivering them as well. We have collaborated with

Fremont Bridge Rotary

(https://fremontbridgerotary.org ) for this cause and if you would like to make a donation, please use the

PayPal link: Pay Raji Nagarkar using PayPal.Me .

IBPW greatly appreciates any form of help that you could provide during these difficult times. If you are able to make any contribution, please let them know that you are an IBPW member and mention this email.
We are also supporting the following organizations, in case you are willing to donate towards these efforts:

COMMUNITY SEVA: This non-profit organization is asking for help to purchase solar chargers for the homeless. If you would like to contribute, please visit their site.https://communityseva.org/solar-chargers-for-the-homeless/

ALF and SVCN: American Leadership Forum (ALF) and Silicon Valley Council of Nonprofits(SVCN) are working together in coordination with the Emergency Operations Committee of the City and County to provide urgently needed essential products.

https://alfsv.org/engage/covid-19-resource-page/
https://www.svcn.org/covid19-resources

They are accepting deliveries in San Jose, please check their websites and consider helping them. They also have a list of items that they need, as given below:

PRIMARY NEED

• Gloves (any) • Hand sanitizer & disinfectant wipes • Any other cleaning products (e.g. spray disinfectant, hand soap, paper towels) • Any masks • Toilet paper

SECONDRY NEED

• Personal Hygiene products • soap, shampoo • Disposable eye protection/goggles/eyewear, disposable gowns, shoe covers (any)

We believe that through a sense of community, we will come out of this with even more connections and support for each other.

Be well and safe!

Thank you,
Indian Business and Professional Women Board.
