Midwest Mission is a disaster response organization located just south of Ball Elementary School. We have been busy getting supplies out all over the state of Illinois and around the world in response to COVID-19. Our staff continues to work with a limited number of volunteers coming in on an as-needed basis to pack kits. We are sending out hygiene kits, N-95 masks, and homemade masks. If you are at home and struggling, the best thing you can do for your health is to stay home but focus on helping others. We have many projects you can do at home and can pick-up from us curbside. http://www.midwestmission.org/kits-projects-patterns/midwest-mission
