As things continue to change, we will continue to adapt to better serve and help those around us. On a personal level, we have raised over $400.00 for #TeamFOX since the CDC required the use of personal face masks and we began selling to the general public. We are planning to offer an easier way by listing individual options instead of just generic male or female by size, even though we will be leaving that for those that are not looking for something more specific.
We are still going strong and still committed to helping as many as we can.
At Love to Sew, Mariel DiNatale, is working to achieve her Gold Award for Girl Scouts. But in order to achieve her award, she will be handling some distribution, managing and overall effort for Chester County.
If you have any questions about how to help or get started or any general communications about making the face masks (patterns, directions, construction, etc...) and delivery of the face masks are to be directed to Mariel at marieldinatale44@gmail.com
1846 Huntsman Lane West Chester PA (the house has a horseshoe driveway)
