United Way Perth-Huron and 211 Perth-Huron have partnered up to provide information on where to buy masks locally.
With most of the province entering Stage 3 of the COVID-19 reopening plan Friday, United Way Perth-Huron has set up an easy way to find out where to purchase masks locally. You can simply dial 211 to find out more, or visit the United Way Perth-Huron website and click on the COVID-19 tab on the site to find a list of local suppliers.
Mask makers and suppliers are listed regionally and there is information about where to obtain funding if you cannot afford to purchase them yourself.
“The 211 helpline is the place to phone when you need help, and finding a mask is no exception," said Susan Faber from UWPH. “We thought it would be handy to have a centralized list, both on our website and through the helpline with further details about obtaining funding for masks, for those that can’t afford them.”
“The list is a work in progress,” added Faber. “Makers and suppliers that are not yet listed are encouraged to contact us to be included”.
To be added to the list call 519 271 7730 or email lthomson@perthhuron.unitedway.ca.
