Greater Chicago area hospitals are experiencing PPE shortages and are asking that individuals and businesses with 3D printing capabilities print face shields for them. At PS1, even while we remain closed, a small number of volunteers have been tending 3D printers as they print face shields. Currently the shields that we have 3D printed have gone to Swedish Covenant, Mount Sanai, St Benard and more. We have printed and donated 1000+ to date. There are other hospitals and first responders that are still in need of face shields.
