Help Build Rest and Recovery Units For Our Frontline Workers

United States

They are fighting for our survival. Our frontline professionals who work long hours to protect the lives of our loved ones. Yet many are not returning home for fear of infecting friends and family, instead sleeping on cot beds or in their cars as they work on call.

We need to change that, we need to give them more than our thanks, we need to give them a place to recover and rechage. Frontline Care is collaborating with a number of partners including Amplifier, Dignity Dwellings, Jupe Health and Paint the World to build a series of stand alone rest and recovery units.

About

Frontline Care

Frontline Care is an initiative founded by TED Prize winning humanitarian Cameron Sinclair and managed by former post-disaster and post-conflict workers to utilize the creative arts to honor, support and respond to the needs of frontline workers.

We bring together a coalition of the willing to focus on the carers, those who don't ask for help in times of need but often need it.

Frontline Care is fiscally sponsored by 501(c)(3) arts based organization, Paint The World. For more information, visit www.givefrontlinecare.org #frontlinecare

What are we creating

Providing shelter from the storm

Frontline Care is run by former frontline workers to support the need of those in the field. During a time of COVID19, the greatest need is to create places of rest and recovery.

Initially we are implementing Jupe Rest, a rapidly deployable care unit. With your support we hope to build and distribute as many custom designed Rest Units as possible.

So join together and help build one unit for a healthcare hero. For the first 5 units we have a matching donation of up to $10,000.

JUPE

Created by designers and ER doctors, designed by artists and creatives, developed by rocket and electric vehicle engineers, made in the USA for healthcare workers in the fight against COVID 19.

These Off-grid/Micro-grid capable units are Wi-Fi/network ready; Air monitoring; Climate controlled & blackout capability. Each REST include mattress, sheets, air filtration system and noise reduction machine.

JUPE Health also builds Care units for non-critical COVID19 islosation units and are developing the worlds' first off-grid mobile ICU. Together these three units; REST, CARE and PLUS (ICU) can be used to build a temporary field hospital or a remote health clinic.

Amplifier

Amplifier believes your art has power. The non profit organizes and enables all of us to make work that can inspire and help lead to real and meaningful change.

As part of our project we are wrapping (at least) 6 units with art that inspires, honors and uplifts our healthcare workers. These designs come from the Amplifier Global Call for Art.

They are also awarding funds for 60 artists, with new winning works announced each week. These artworks will be distributed widely, both online and in the physical locations where they are needed most.
