United Way of Coastal Fairfield County recently donated 1,000 KN-95 masks for use by the seniors at Hall Neighborhood House. Despite the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC's) lifted guidelines, masks are needed by local seniors--especially workers in the public eye and those with compromised immune systems. The donation was made possible by Yale New Haven Health.
