With the ever-growing case numbers and deaths from COVID-19, and the order of the day being to stay at home, people are looking for ways to do something to contribute to the cause.

For Jean Huddleston of Champaign and one of her friends, that meant sewing 800 masks, which she has donated to health care workers and first responders.

For information on how to join the effort, visit Carle's mask website or follow the instructions on this YouTube video.
