Help Sierra Breathe:
Getting N95 respirator masks to those close to the fires
Who we are:
Help Sierra Breathe is a coalition of community and mutual aid groups spanning the Sierra Nevada region and surrounding metro areas working in partnership with Mask Oakland to get N95 masks to people who can’t escape toxic wildfire smoke.
Donate to continue our response to unprecedented wildfires.
Why your support matters:
From the smallest rural towns to the largest metro areas, almost no one can get the masks they need. Our experienced organizers are urgently getting masks to vulnerable people *now*. Governments and large aid agencies keep failing to get N95 masks – the most basic protection from wildfire smoke – to their most vulnerable residents. We can change that.
Sounds great! How can I help?
We need to buy and distribute as many masks as possible.
