Mad Engine Million Mask Giveaway – Mad Engine Global
Mad Engine made Lemonade out of Lemons…. or rather out of canceled tee shirt orders! We took blank tees from canceled orders and immediately made 2-ply cloth face coverings and donated them to any organization that needed them. Nursing homes, hospitals, police and fire departments, homeless shelters as well as two “drive by” giveaway events to the general public. Starting in May 2020 and continuing through August 2020, one million masks were given away… this not only impacted the communities nationwide but also lifted the spirits of our employees!

Working quickly to update a section of Peanuts.com to make a home for this curriculum, the team also undertook the process of translating the curricula into 10 additional languages to serve the global Peanuts community. Other free activities included a How to Draw video series, and activity and coloring sheets.
