SEWING MASKS
FOR MAINE

After delivering more than 22,600 cloth masks to Maine's healthcare workers, our volunteers are moving on to individual county efforts.

We have kept our patterns and sewing information online to act as a resource for those continuing to sew for healthcare environments.

Most of Maine's Emergency Management offices have agreed to act as a drop off location for donated cloth masks. Here you can find information for places to donate now that SMFM has closed.

This project was started by six volunteers to provide Maine healthcare orgs with cloth mask covers. We are no longer an active group, but if you have need to reach out to us- contact us via email at the link below.

We have created this website to pool resources and give guidance to people in Maine to sew masks for use in healthcare settings. To be clear, these masks do not protect from COVID-19, and are not considered valid PPE. We are responding to direct requests from healthcare facilities in Maine following the amended "last resort" guidance from the federal CDC.
