Kim, Achim’s wife, searched the internet for facemask designs, bought some fabric and dusted off her sewing machine to start the journey to help the community. The family, including kids Karley, 13, and son Liam, 11, fine-tuned their skills, design and manufacturing process and started producing masks.
The kids help cut out patterns and iron the straps for Kim to pin together and sew. In less than two weeks, they produced more than 90 masks that have been distributed to family members and the community free of charge.
The Prosser family continues to work with a neighbor to provide masks for local nursing home and Veteran Assistance residences.
