Wanting to make a difference is nothing new for active members of the Beverly Hills community. But in this time of COVID-19, the ways in which people can give back have dramatically shifted in response to local and state mandates. Welcome the “Masks for Mankind” initiative, a community effort to provide much-needed face masks to local hospitals.
“Sitting at home, you do feel really helpless [and] we felt compelled to do something,” described Beverly Hills resident Ronit Stone, who launched the initiative last week together with a group of close-knit group friends, all of whom have long supported various community endeavors and local schools.
