We are partnering up with Milford TV and the Milford Board of Health to provide mask making kits to our community members! These mask kits will be available on Friday, April 10th between 8-10 am and 11 am-1 pm at Memorial Elementary School, located at 12 Walnut St., Milford MA. The kits will be distributed with the free breakfast and lunch program, sponsored by the Hockomock Area YMCA, Milford Public Schools and the Milford Humanitarian Coalition. The first 40 families will also get a free 2020 Census drawstring backpack with information on why the Census is so important (in Spanish and Portuguese) to also help spread the word the importance of responding to get accurate numbers that reflect our community! We will also be distributing 100 mask kits to the Milford Senior Center to add to their daily food delivery!
These masks are intended solely for use within your house to reduce likelihood of spreading among your family members. We hope this
program will be successful in not only providing a safer environment for our families at home but creating a community driven activity for all to take
part in. We’d all love to see your projects in the making! If you have a video and/or photo that you want to share, please send them to our Program Coordinator Kathleen Irwin at Kirwin@townofmilford.com.
We want to thank Liz Harkins and Milford TV for their continued support and drive to help make this project a reality and the community as a whole, the best it can be! Another huge thank you to Joann Ann Fabrics of Milford and Home Depot of Mansfield for their donation of materials to make almost 1000 masks!
