One mask at a time: The Hamilton County Indiana Mask Brigade fights for health with their own hands

Thank you Bergen Zebrauskus and Jane Jeong of Miller Media Now!

Libby Sutherland had a million reasons to want to fight Covid-19. She, of course, wanted to protect her kids who have heart conditions and her mother who lives with them. But she also didn’t want her kids, a junior and a senior at NHS, to have to miss out on special milestones like prom and gradua...

THIS! This makes me so very proud!!! From our very own Brigadier Deanna Truitt, “NEVER underestimate the talents God has given you! I always told myself that I cannot sew; it’s just not in me. Yes, my sister has those talents, but I do not. I would never be precise, neat, creative, smart or patient enough. But today, I put my new found sewing skills (day two) to the test. Low and behold I was able to sew the tablecloth pieces I have been cutting and created a barrier GOWN for a local fire department. This almost 50 year old did it!!! I hope to keep trying new things bc then I can say I’m still young (at heart anyways)❣️😷☀️”

Update on the movie night this weekend. The movie scheduled for this Friday, May 15th will be rescheduled on toward the end of June. Thanks Wafford Theater Outdoor Movies!!!

We have decided, due to the uncertainty of the rain/storms forecast for Friday to cancel the movie night for May 15th.
There seems to be a slight opportunity to get the movie in…but for the safety of our community (and equipment) we need to practice “patience”and wait until next week for the first movie night. "Dolittle" will be re-scheduled for friday June 26th.

Thank you Hamilton County Mask Brigade for making masks for our patients that don’t have access to getting masks. Hamilton County Indiana Mask Brigade

Amazing news ladies (and gents)!!! We have surpassed 21,000 items and I can vouch that the people we are delivering to wish they could hug each and every one of you.

This weekend we delivered over 1000 masks and caps to all of these places and then some.

- Free clinic in Westfield
- Dr office and clinic in Carmel
- 2 Dr offices in Fishers
- Another batch to nurses at Riverview Hospital (they are still going to be needing 5000 masks in the next 6 months is an educated guess from their hazmat/COVID coordinator.
- Dental clinics
- Lawrence PD (They are set now)
- Opioid Crisis Convention Conference & Pastors Coordinating
- Requests by other offices across the county in need of a first set (these often get prioritized after more immediate needs but are important to fill in whenever possible and way too many to name.) THIS is where the question and answer for “How many more PPE’s will be needed?” The answer here is that we have merely scraped the surface of all the different medical providers that will be returning to in office visits soon. They will all need them and their patients will too.

Tomorrow we will be delivering masks and face shields to Beech Grove Police Department who donated enough supplies to Chris Hilbert to make an additional 600 face shields. ❤️

We just ordered enough elastic for our crews to make 2000 more masks! Fabric is becoming harder to find, so please keep us posted on what is out there!

We have some more gowns in production, but will be needing a lot more for that in the next couple of months to be sure for our first response heroes.

YOU are making a difference in keeping people safe one mask/cap/gown/headband at a time! Every one of you is making something HUGE happen here.

THANK YOU! 😷 😷

Anyone want to try sewing the Caps for us? We have a large amount of caps cut by our wonderful CNC Cutter and just need some more hands on those if anyone wants to try them. IF you have materials already to sew please continue on with those first. Just looking for idle hands that want fibers. Thanks for all the help! Every member is making bigger things happen as a whole group. ♥️ 😷 🎩

We will be partnering with Wafford Theater Outdoor Movies, and Hamilton County, Indiana for the movie night to help the general public learn about the Brigade and how to proceed with the process of re-opening. This will help us spread the word about our mission, and guests will have the opportunity to learn how to sew a mask for their own personal use. Come Join in the fun at the Hamilton County Fairgrounds! {After all of this is 'over' we can all benefit from having a personal use mask for when we are sick and still must leave our houses during any sort of contagion.}
