An estimated 1 million Budmen® Face Shields have been produced and distributed across the globe since March 2020.

Discover how three extraordinary citizens organized their communities to produce tens of thousands of Face Shields to protect frontline workers fighting COVID-19.

Join Stephanie and Isaac of Budmen Industries in a discussion with Madiha Choksi, Jake Ezzo, Sam Haynor and Eda Altiok about how their heroic actions in NYC, New Jersey and San Francisco brought together vast communities in a time of need.
