(Ball Chain) family of companies out of Mount Vernon, New York, announces its plan to distribute free Powecom® KN95 masks in the Times Square Shuttle subway station in partnership with Brooklyn Center for Independence of the Disabled (BCID).

Additionally, the company has facilitated grassroots distribution efforts through collaboration with local community leaders. “We have received an outpouring of requests from individuals in lower economic communities asking us for support. We have incorporated these requests into our 1.5 million mask donation pledge. It’s been our honor to work with so many organizations and community heroes to distribute our masks. Charitable efforts have always been at the core of our 80-year-old, family-owned, and operated business. We have always embraced the concept of giving back.” – Bill Taubner, President, Bona Fide Masks.
