Send your masks to healthcare workers without leaving your house.

We’ll show you how.

I’m a healthcare worker and I need masks.

I want to help and
I have masks to give.

Dear Mask Match Community,

We at Mask Match have been overwhelmed by the response to the needs of our healthcare workers. Over the past 3 months, our community has sent 821,000 masks from 6,200 donors to 7,300 recipients. This includes deliveries to every state, as well as Puerto Rico and Washington DC. 

Our donors include people who had a single box of masks under their workbench or wildfire masks in their closet, many small business owners eager to help, and very dedicated volunteers sewing handmade masks.

Our recipients include ER doctors in NY and NJ, local hospital and EMS providers in Mississippi caring for patients in the aftermath of a tornado, and Navajo Nation EMS providers amongst many others.

Over the past few weeks, we’ve seen fewer requests for masks. This is a great sign that supply chains are catching up to demand, and a very welcome one, as there are simply not as many boxes of masks out there waiting to be discovered. We’ve decided to join forces with GetUsPPE, an organization well-prepared to support PPE needs and advocate for healthcare workers throughout future waves of COVID-19.

As the start of the crisis loomed, we were inspired to act and we expected a challenge. What we did not expect was the level of dedication from our volunteers and the depth of generosity we saw from our donors. We would like to thank our donors for that generosity, our health care provider recipients for their patience as we worked out the kinks, and our volunteers for their tireless work. 

Our last request to our community: please wear masks. It’s been conclusively shown that this is the most effective tool we have to protect ourselves and our country from this terrible disease. Let’s continue showing that we care for each other by taking this simple step.
