She said people in her area find it hard to find face masks to protect themselves from COVID-19.

One of the beneficiaries Etress Kachala commended Vision for the Voiceless for providing masks.

She says it has been hard for her to buy a face mask as it is expensive and not easy to find in her area.

“To find a mask here is not easy as you have to buy which is hard for some of us. Thank you. I will make good use of the masks I have received so that I protect myself from COVID 19,” she says.
