Schools are set to reopen here, as #COVID19 cases are spiking. Teachers & students will be w/out #PPE; To help, we're ramping face shield production for schools. Our initial goal is 7K shields. See here for ways you can donate or help: familab.org/2020/07/our-ppe-… #ShieldTheChildren
Create something today. Even if it sucks.
