'Sewed And Delivered Thousands Of Masks': Benicia Heroes

BENICIA, CA— When times are tough, heroes emerge. We all know someone who's making a difference right now as we live through unprecedented and changing times.

Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize these heroes making a difference in their communities. Together with Ring, we’re working to let all your neighbors know about these outstanding people and their stories.

This submission comes from Steve Young, who nominated his personal friends, Bodil and Larnie Fox of Benicia.

"Formed Benicia Mask Makers, a group of now 75 people sewing masks for health care professionals and farm workers and school kids."

One Thing To Know
