Duluthians donate 2,572 Masks as a part of Governor’s Mask Drive
[Duluth, MN] Duluthians donated 2,572 masks as a part of Governor Walz’s State-wide Mask Drive on Saturday, April 25. The Duluth Fire Department counted all of the masks individually in preparation of giving them out to approximately 30 local congregate care facilities who identified a need for personal protective equipment.
“This was a tremendous turnout,” Duluth Fire Chief Shawn Krizaj said. “It was incredible to see the number of people pulling into the stations to drop off homemade masks. I know our staff really enjoyed seeing the diverse designs that people came up with.”
The Fire Department plans to distribute the masks tomorrow, April 29.
