PPE4ALL is planning to distribute 100,000 masks to various non-profit organizations in order to help protect people from the effects of air pollution. The first recipients of these masks will be Impact Services - Philadelphia, Cove House Homeless Shelter and Free Clinic - Copperas Cove, TX, Project BEE - Minot ND, and NorCal Resist, Sacramento, CA.

Bona Fide Masks is an established mask company that has supplied masks to various organizations, including the U.S. Congress and the U.S. Armed Forces. In response to the pandemic, they became one of the most-trusted mask companies and have supported impact-driven philanthropic efforts to address communities in need.

The recipients of this grant are veterans, homeless communities, emergency shelters, volunteer workers, and refugees from Afghanistan and Ukraine.

Bona Fide Masks is an executive team that brings over 80 years of manufacturing and distribution expertise to the business. Over the last four generations, their affiliated company, Ball Chain Manufacturing Co., Inc. has prioritized community service. Since its inception, Bona Fide Masks has donated hundreds of thousands of masks to frontline workers, schools, charities, soup kitchens and more.

Bona Fide Masks is proud to provide authentic masks to people in need, especially in underserved and critically compromised communities. This is in response to the CDC’s report that more than 60% of masks currently available are counterfeit.

The CEO of PPE4ALL thanked Bona Fide Masks for their donation, which will help the organization provide services to soup kitchens, healthcare clinics, and elderly communities nationwide.

PPE4ALL was established to provide personal protective equipment to those who are at risk from the COVID-19 pandemic. They accomplish this by working with key stakeholders and connecting them with the resources they need to thrive in difficult circumstances. Bona Fide Masks has donated 100,000 Powecom KN95 respirators masks to PPE4ALL, and SupplyBank will also donate 50,000 Harley KN95 respirators masks. This donation will help ensure that under-resourced people in 58 counties have access to essential supplies without stigma.
