Masks for the Community
Sakrid Coffee Roasters on Nassau Street, which remains open for pick up, has allocated all revenues from the coffee shop towards purchasing personal protective equipment for local hospitals and organizations. While the shop is new, owners Jonathan Haley and Serge Picard have been in the business for decades, and were able to quickly secure the equipment from overseas contacts. The first shipment of 3,000 medically-approved masks was delivered last week. Pictured are Aaron Vitale, left, and co-owner Serge Picard. (Photo by Erica M. Cardenas)
