Community Mask Making

Mask making is in full swing with our health worker partners and school teams in Zambia. Residents are required to wear a mask when going to public places. Students and teachers returning to school on June 1st (starting with examination grades 7, 9, and 12) must wear masks and follow new health guidelines. A "new normal," as stated by the ministry of education. Everyone is working together to ensure the health and safety of the children and community.

Ireen from Kasompe making masks for the returning students using the NEW sewing machines recently purchased for the new tailoring program for the school and Kafwa. These sewing machines could not have come at a better time! 

Jane in Luapula trying on one of the masks she made for her home health clients. She also thoughtfully shared, "I wish I could send some for you!"
