COVID fundraiser for 1000 masks. Let’s Start Building the New World Together.
We are a group of female founder activists, from the East and West Coasts.
Same as you, we just couldn’t sit and wait till this Crisis is over. As fun as
cooking and home workouts are (let alone Zoom Happy Hours),
we felt an urge to do something impactful to support
the health heroes on the frontlines.
On Friday, 5/22, We are hosting The Change Summit featuring business leaders, environmental activists, startup founders, venture capitalists, and healthcare professionals to address the consequences of COVID-19, discuss the solutions and focus on the new opportunities. All the funds raised from the event (suggested donation $25) will go to purchase masks and PPE for the frontline healthcare workers in need.
This photo is provided by Ayia Ultman, a nurse in Florida. We were especially inspired by this photo and will be reading a reflection that Ayia provided us to share about her experience on the front lines.
8:30 - 8:45 am PST (11:30-11:am EST) - Welcome from co-hosts Sophia Platt @ RAY, Alissa Baier-Lentz @ Kintra Fibers. The organizers will also be sharing the message of one of the frontline workers - Ayia Ultman, their friend who has been working as a nurse in Florida, putting in extraordinary hours and risking her life to keep us safe.
