With the work of over 100 people coming together, we are almost up to 10,000 masks out for production! Masks that will go directly in the hands of medical professionals in the ICU’s, ER’s, clinics, rehab centers, to the guests of shelters.. and to the crafters who are working so hard to make it all happen. So grateful!!!

What a fitting day to celebrate.. Hesed House is moving to a hotel tomorrow!!! Massive thank you to Kane County Sheriff Ron Hain for his work in making this happen, fighting for the safety of every member of our community.
