Future’s the New Oprah, Gives 100,000 Masks to People
There are a lot of puns out there featuring Future and masks in light of his 2017 hit ‘Mask Off’ and the fact that his charity foundation has recently distributed over 100,000 masks to healthcare and other essential services workers.
But we aren’t gonna be making any of them, because this is serious business!
FreeWishes Foundation is a project by Future’s sister and mother. Abesi Manyando, the Communication Strategist told all in an interview, “We started seeing stories about doctors saying they had to reuse their masks, and then some were getting infected because they didn’t have the proper equipment. At first, we were thinking, could we order masks from somewhere? But there were absolutely no masks available—not the specific ones that the healthcare workers needed.”
The organization has been involved in providing masks for health care workers, patients, and minority communities in the country, specifically in Atlanta, amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Alexa, play ‘Masks On’ by Future. Sorry, not sorry.
