The masks can also be worn as scarves, after the pandemic is over.

Heartland Women’s Healthcare is selling bandana masks to raise funds for the Women’s Center in Carbondale.

The bandana masks are being sold to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 and raise money for a good cause, said founder Michael Schifano. He says they decided to use the masks for a fundraiser because they got so many calls from people wanting to purchase one.

“We wanted to find a worthwhile cause and the Women’s Center of Carbondale has really been an organization that’s near and dear to our hearts and to our patients needs and we selected them to receive the proceeds,” Schifano said.

The masks are available at clinic locations in Carbondale, Centralia, Marion, Mount Vernon, and Shiloh in Illinois and at Dellwood, Lake St. Louis, Poplar Bluff, and Wentzville in Missouri or online at usaobgyn.com/masks.
