Love Your Melon, a mission-driven apparel brand, has announced that the company has sent over 150,000 face masks to frontline workers and hospitals to every state in the US. Love Your Melon has produced over 300,000 face masks to-date and is focused on giving to areas with the highest shortages as well as to the children battling cancer and their families.
 
Beyond the initial 50,000 masks Love Your Melon funded and committed to donating, the Buy One, Give One programme has enabled them to donate an additional 130,000 masks to the medical communities in need across the country. This brings their total possible number of masks donated to 180,000 and the number will continue to grow as more are released and purchased as a part of their Face Mask Collection. Donations have been sent in volume to the following areas that needed them most: New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Illinois and California.
 
The company plans to continue shipping more masks every day as production increases.
 
After launching the collection on April 10 and nearly the entire assortment selling out within 30 minutes, The Love Your Melon Buy One, Give One Face Mask Collection will be restocked and available for purchase again.
 
The Face Mask Collection features products that have been in design over the past month and a half. Love Your Melon reached out to health care networks across the country and received ideas and materials to make these products. Though the products themselves are not medical grade and Love Your Melon makes no claims of them being medical products, they are made with medical grade materials and are being used in health care networks and at the medical community's discretion when there is nothing else to wear.
 
The One Time Wear Masks, which Love Your Melon is making 50,000 of a day, are especially being put to work as face coverings for patients, visitors and non-patient facing health care workers.
 
"The Buy One, Give One aspect of our Face Mask Collection allows us to increase mask production and reach frontline health care workers and hospitals in every state in America," Zachary Quinn, co-CEO of Love Your Melon, said in a press release.
 
We are excited to see the progress we have made so far but know there are many more people that need our help. We are grateful for the support of our manufacturing partners as well as health care networks that have stepped up to help us design these products and source materials like surgical wrap.”
