Operation Masks is a non-profit with one goal: Deliver as much personal protective equipment (PPE) as possible from the factory to the frontlines. We’ve delivered 20+ million units of PPE nationally since April to recipients including the states of Colorado, Hawaii, Illinois, New York, Louisiana, and medical institutions like Cedars Sinai and Johns Hopkins Medical.
We enable a fast, reliable, and transparent procurement process to drive down PPE prices and eliminate profiteering. Through a custom built end-to-end medical supply chain, on the ground quality control in China, and direct relationships with trusted suppliers, we deliver masks, gowns, and other PPE to governments and hospitals as quickly as possible. Partnering with the C19 Coalition allows us to accelerate our efforts to support our heroes in the front line.
Supporting Our Healthcare Heroes
The COVID-19 crisis has caused an unprecedented strain on the complex global supply chain upon which healthcare providers everywhere rely. Today in the United States, millions of men and women serving on the frontlines of the crisis face a dire shortage of critical equipment. Not only does this endanger them and their families, it also hinders their ability to effectively provide care for us all. We decided to help get them the protective gear they need as they fight this pandemic.
Protective equipment shortage in the U.S.
The lack of personal protective equipment (PPE) at U.S. hospitals is critical. We have set up the relationships to get PPE such as masks and gloves from payment to factory procurement to shipping to ground delivery to hospitals, with the help of our partners at Flexport, Deliverr, and Echo.
Operation Masks is currently only serving federal agencies, state governments, and hospitals in the United States.
We strictly monitor quality directly with manufacturers
Operation Masks has boots on the ground at the source of manufacturing. We quality check each supplier to ensure PPE buyers are protected from the rampant fraud that is prevalent around the world. Integrity is fundamental to our culture and the way we run our organization.
