Hidden Treasure 2 Calls For Community Help to Make Masks

Here at the Hidden Treasure 2 we want to help as many folks as we can get masks at no charge! (Donations are accepted but not required.) This is a community event. We need folks in the community that can sew.

Good Morning, By now I am sure that everyone has heard that both President Trump and Governor Polis have said EVERYONE should be wearing a mask when they leave their homes to go out for essential items. They would like this accomplished by April 15th. Gov. Jared Polis on Friday urged all Coloradans to begin wearing non-medical cloth face-masks whenever they leave their home for essential activities, such as grocery shopping, getting gas and exercising. Wearing a mask is encouraged but not required and will not be enforced. This will help slow the spread of the virus and go a long way to “Flattening the curve”.

Here at the Hidden Treasure 2 we want to help as many folks as we can get masks at no charge! (Donations are accepted but not required.) This is a community event. We need folks in the community that can sew. We will provide the material, you make the masks, bring them back to us to distribute. We have given out over 700+ masks to nursing homes, assisted living facilities, home health workers and more. Last night, from the time the Governor and President made their announcement we took orders for 800 masks for the community. Incredible and we really need your help. This is a monumental task, but we will accomplish this!

Unfortunately, we will not have masks to just give out to the public as drop ins. All requests for masks must be made on the phone by calling 720-340-9951. We will be in the studio working on masks Monday – Saturday from 10am to 5pm. We are asking for as many volunteers that can help sew to give us a call and we will get you the supplies. For those needing masks please place your orders. When masks are in, we will call you to come pick up your order. All masks are washable and can go in the dryer.

We have made some changes to the flow of the shop. The only entrance (1 customer at a time to ensure social distancing) will be the front middle door to the studio. We are calling it the MASK door. If you are coming for supplies, to drop off masks and such, please call ahead, we can meet you curbside. This is a big project but if we all work together, we can get masks out quickly and effectively. Again, we are sorry, but we have no masks to hand out directly with out being on the list. Remember these masks are FREE, made by our family and many, many other amazing people who want to help. Donations are accepted. This is a COMMUNITY PROJECT as we BRING THE GOOD to Longmont. A special thanks to Good Morning Longmont for inviting us to be part of their Live Video last night.

Remember to order masks, pick up supplies, drop off donations or masks please give us a call 720-340-9951 from 10am to 5pm. Thank you all so much. Together, as a community, we can beat this virus! Blessings!
