In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, etee — the subscription-based brand that offers affordable sustainable household products — recently announced it was pivoting its production model to create organic cotton masks in place of manufacturing bags. These clothe masks have been shown to help stop the spread of COVID-19 by preventing unexpected coughs and sneezes to reach other individuals and infect them.
The sustainable brand announced that they will adopt a buy two, donate two sales model to support local organizations at the forefront of fighting the pandemic. The eco-friendly brand announced that the mask donations will be going to Michael Garron Hospital in Toronto and Safe Horizon Streetworks in the Bronx in NYC.
