By Tinuiti Team

If you’re anything like me, you’ve been glued to your phone consuming (probably too much) bad news about the Coronavirus.

While the impact of the virus is and will continue to be devastating, we’ve been able to look to our partners to find glimmers of hope and positivity. 

The Tinuiti CRM & Email team is proud to work with incredible brands who have stepped up to give back to their communities, including pivoting production facilities to help address the lack of personal protective equipment (PPE) for medical professionals or inviting their customers to join them in charitable endeavors.

If you’re looking for good news or need inspiration during times of crisis, here are 9 Tinuiti brands that are stepping up and saving lives.

 

1. Manufacturing Mattresses to Increase Hospital Bed Counts: Boll & Branch 

 

The well-known makers of organic cotton sheets, bath textiles, and now mattresses have mobilized their manufacturing facilities to produce mattresses and pillows for hospitals responding to the Coronavirus pandemic, helping to increase the number of hospital beds where they are needed most.

Ten percent of all proceeds from Boll & Branch purchases will go toward this effort; if you’re in need of new sheets, there’s never been a better time to buy.

2. Mobilizing Manufacturers to Create Reusable Face Masks: Get It Right

 

Much-loved maker of silicone cooking tools, Get It Right raced to design a reusable silicone face mask, and turned to their manufacturers to begin production and shipment as quickly as possible.

The masks are fitted with disposable filters that can be removed and replaced, allowing for sanitation and reuse. Shoppers buying masks for themselves are encouraged to purchase a kit for donation to an essential worker in need.

3. Retooling Production Facilities to Create Critical PPE: Boat Outfitters

 

Boating parts, hardware, and accessory retailer Boat Outfitters offers custom work to replace worn parts on boats, so their production facility was uniquely suited to respond to our nation’s needs as COVID-19 began to spread across the country.

Boat Outfitters has begun production on much needed PPE, including face shields for medical professionals, clear protective panels to create safety barriers for essential workers, and aerosol intubation boxes to reduce the risk of doctors becoming infected while performing intubation procedures.

4. Ramping Up Their Giving Back Program for Local and National Support: Bombas

 

Giving back is baked into the culture and business model at Bombas. For every item purchased, Bombas donates an item to someone affected by homelessness.

That mission is being put to good use in the fight against the Coronavirus; Bombas is donating compression socks to doctors and nurses, contributing non-perishable foods and fresh groceries to communities in need in NYC, and providing 100,000 pairs of socks to Food Bank for NYC to be distributed alongside meals for public school children and their families, among other initiatives.

FWD has also been able to provide large quantities of cotton fabrics that healthcare workers and hospitals desperately need to make face masks and other PPE gear.
