DIY masks to prevent Covid-19
With the outbreak of Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the issue that came to forefront is the shortage of face mask.
Soon after the health experts announced the use of hygiene products such as hand sanitizers and face masks, the public is finding it difficult to procure masks.
To address the above issue of short supply of masks ,we have come up with a DIY video showing a simple way to make cotton fabric face mask right at your home using sewing machine. Singer hope it will help those in urgent need of masks.
During the current challenging times, helping the community in which we operate is not only the need of the hour but for SINGER, it has been a noble call. As part of our humanitarian efforts to help ease the health situation, Singer Skill center students and teachers have taken the initiative of making & distributing (fabric) masks for the needy as masks are in short supply.
Moreover, we have come up with a small video to share our happiness in letting you all know that our mask-making efforts have found excellent support from our volunteer groups across local communities & people have teamed up to help SINGER in this humble cause. It gives us a great sense of satisfaction to see families who teamed up to make masks using SINGER Sewing machines & distribute them to the people who need them.
Also, our heartfelt gratitude goes to the Healthcare fraternity & other authorities doing their best to fight the spread. We urge one & all to stand united to help each other is these difficult times.
