“Help support medical personnel by sewing non-surgical protective face masks to donate to hospitals and medical clinics. You may even already have cotton or flannel at home to make these masks,” the retailer said in a social media post.

JOANN Fabrics encouraged people to drop off them at store locations, where they will be donated to local hospitals.
