Early in the pandemic crisis, the Rising Tide Capital team took a lesson from the entrepreneurs in our community: we asked ourselves, how could we help? In just a few short days we had a task force established and we had reached out to our networks. Our internal staff leads, Briana Sellers and Andrew Farrelly, mapped out an effort coordinating the acquisition of materials; a group of volunteers ready to create comfortable, stylish protective masks; and community partners eager to receive and distribute them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than one thousand masks later, we have evolved our model and effort to ensure that our networks can continue to show up and do our part to keep our neighbors protected and healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After months involving dozens of volunteers dropping off fabrics to makers, and then taking masks to community centers, organizations caring for our elders, and shelters for people experiencing homelessness, we reached out again to our entrepreneurs for help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are willing to make or donate masks, we invite you to drop them off at one of the following Rising Tide entrepreneur locations:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mantenga a nuestra comunidad segura: haga o done m\u00e1scaras<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Al comienzo de la crisis pand\u00e9mica, el equipo de Rising Tide Capital aprendi\u00f3 una lecci\u00f3n de los emprendedores de nuestra comunidad: nos preguntamos, \u00bfc\u00f3mo podr\u00edamos ayudar? En solo unos pocos d\u00edas, establecimos un grupo de trabajo y nos comunicamos con nuestras redes. Nuestros l\u00edderes de personal interno, Briana Sellers y Andrew Farrelly, hicieron un esfuerzo coordinando la adquisici\u00f3n de materiales; un grupo de voluntarios listos para crear m\u00e1scaras protectoras c\u00f3modas y elegantes; y socios comunitarios deseosos de recibirlos y distribuirlos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

M\u00e1s de mil m\u00e1scaras despu\u00e9s, hemos desarrollado nuestro modelo y esfuerzo para asegurar que nuestras redes puedan seguir apareciendo y hacer nuestra parte para mantener a nuestros vecinos protegidos y saludables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despu\u00e9s de meses de involucrar a docenas de voluntarios que entregaban telas a los fabricantes y luego llevaban m\u00e1scaras a centros comunitarios, organizaciones que cuidan a nuestros ancianos y refugios para personas sin hogar, nos acercamos nuevamente a nuestros empresarios en busca de ayuda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Si est\u00e1 dispuesto a hacer o donar m\u00e1scaras, lo invitamos a que las deje en una de las siguientes ubicaciones de emprendedores de Rising Tide:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
