Ahead of an executive order mandating the use of facial coverings for all residents, Senator Nick Collins announced a district-wide initiative to equip residents in need with free protective masks.
“On behalf of our residents and staff, we thank Senator Collins for providing needed masks during this difficult time,” said Lydia Agro, Boston Housing Authority Chief of Staff and Public Affairs.
In collaboration with his district representatives and councilors, Senator Collins and his team distributed over 30,000 masks to the Boston Housing Authority, other subsidized and affordable housing managers, as well as non-profit organizations working in communities disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak.
“As we continue to face this crisis together, we are proud to partner with our elected officials, local businesses, and residents to provide resources in our community”, said Gail Lattimore, Executive Director of Codman Square Neighborhood Development Corporation.
We are proud to have the kind support of Senator Nick Collins and his team who donated over 3,000 face masks to be distributed to residents of Cruz Management properties.”
