Agnieszka Uchman, organizer of the “Bolesławiec Sews for Medics” campaign:

Having observed the worsening situation in Bolesławiec hospitals, I decided to organize a similar campaign in Bolesławiec. I know that the “back-office” staff do not have masks at all, and that medical personnel are working with limited resources.

I also know that there are many people who have sewing machines, some basic sewing skills and, above all, want to help by joining the campaign.

And she adds:

However, we want to mobilize the entire community, the authorities and Bolesławiec entrepreneurs. On our Facebook group Bolesławiec Sews for Medics there is a form available for people who want to donate masks or materials. The entire flow of materials and masks is coordinated by Ms Joanna Kumosz (contact via Facebook or email).

Organizers:

Anyone wishing to support the campaign is invited to contact us by email at szyjemyboleslawiec@gmail.com.
