City of Myrtle Beach for their first responders and city workers.
face masks! We are so proud of all our volunteers who sacrificed their time on the beach, reading a good book, spending time with their families, gardening, etc… to help us make a difference for our healthcare workers and first responders in the Myrtle Beach area. We started our “Mask Project” by partnering up with Britt Bird, the founder of MakeMasksforAmerica.org. She had the orders coming in and we had the volunteers to help meet the demand. We started our project the first week of April and didn’t stop until the end of May.
Below is a note received from John Cowan, Purchasing Manager for the City of Myrtle Beach: Grande Dunes, Words cannot express the heartfelt thanks. The City employees recognize the time, effort and materials you and the individuals that have made these masks put into this project. These masks will support the City of Myrtle beach front line personnel. Again, our thanks to you for making these beautiful masks for the City of Myrtle Beach. Regards, John Cowan
