I read today that an employee for the San Jose PD remembered some masks from the 2009 swine flu epidemic. She got some helpers and went through storage and found a cache of 50,000 masks, which the PD has donated to 5 local hospitals. Events like this make me feel proud. </p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.mercurynews.com/2020/03/25/police-employee-finds-surplus-cache-of-masks-and-sjpd-donates-them-to-hospitals-for-covid-19-fight/">https://www.mercurynews.com/20.....pd-donates</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/repurposing-production-lines#post-2109131 Thu, 26 Mar 2020 19:45:23 +0000 nuancedream 2109131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Canada Goose</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.canadagoose.com/en/beyond/coronavirus-statement/">https://www.canadagoose.com/en.....statement/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/repurposing-production-lines#post-2109123 Thu, 26 Mar 2020 19:25:52 +0000 kkards 2109123@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>American giant<br /> <a href="https://www.american-giant.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.american-giant.com/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/repurposing-production-lines#post-2109110 Thu, 26 Mar 2020 18:10:45 +0000 Carla 2109110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://fashionista.com/2020/03/fashion-beauty-companies-coronavirus-covid19-manufacturing-products-help?utm_source=site&amp;utm_campaign=related">https://fashionista.com/2020/0.....-products-</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/repurposing-production-lines#post-2109107 Thu, 26 Mar 2020 17:59:41 +0000 Angie 2109107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Nemosmom,</b> YES!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/repurposing-production-lines#post-2109106 Thu, 26 Mar 2020 17:55:34 +0000 nemosmom 2109106@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Crocs has committed to donating 10k pairs of shoes per day to healthcare workers until their supply runs out!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/repurposing-production-lines#post-2109098 Thu, 26 Mar 2020 17:44:01 +0000 Angie 2109098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks,<b> Carla</b>!
