The librarians are following instructions from the Medical College of Wisconsin and using suggested materials and supplies.
Because there is a shortage of mask for people in the frontlines, LA County Library sent out a call-out asking for volunteers to sew masks. Approximately 100 people with sewing skills volunteered, and to 23 those people started to work at La Puente Library. By the end of their first week, they’ll create 350 masks. Once all 100 volunteers get stocked with supplies, they will produce 1,500 face masks per week. (Photo Credit: Los Angeles County)

I Will Sleep Well Tonight Because I Have a Blanket!
Every year St Vincent de Paul helped thousands of people within Canberra and around Australia. This requires thousands of dollars in funds to keep this going, the motorcycle community both here in Canberra and around Australia pitching a few times a year to go along and help with donations and support. Tomorrow is one of their major ways in which they can help the unfortunate.
Tomorrow is the St Vincent DePaul blanket on the ground in Canberra were motorcyclists bring donations of blankets and other warm clothing which St Vincent de Paul handout or sell to assist people that are in need.
Myself and my daughter will be there to support what is a fantastic motorcycle community and to help less fortunate in any way we can. I will be there as an event photographer to capture the moments and give them back to the people which have given up their time and money and blankets to help other people in need.
If you are motorcyclists living in Canberra I urge you to come a all long to the blanket run which starts at 8:30 AM at old Parliament.
Here are just some of the photos which I took last year!

Years ago I was taking photos at a day camp and saw this little girl being helped with some art work. She was having so much fun although it was physically difficult for her to complete the task. I don't know who she was but for some reason I always enjoyed this image.
in giving a hand....
I don't do it as often as I'd like. But if I do give a hand at least once a day I'll be making some form of impact. Only desaturated because I'm self conscious [...surprise!] about my teeth even in bokeh.
