We have kicked off our "#GearUpGeeks" initiative!
It is our mission to provide our fellow community members and those at high risk with the PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) they need during this crisis.
Most stores nation-wide are completely sold out of all PPE, so GeekBeacon decided to take matters into our own hands.

Here's how:
-
Gear Up Geeks!
- Our community members are 3D printing! We are giving away our printed, medically-approved mask-bands to help with proper fit of your masks.
- Hopefully Soon: We are currently in the exploratory phase of sourcing an industrial cloth cutter that can rapidly produce the cloth portions of masks.
-
Outreach
- Posted an official forum post to collect stories, targeting those with asthma, immune disorders or otherwise "high risk" groups
- We have launched the #covid-outreach channel in our Discord for collaboration and coordination in our efforts
- Created an outreach and response team where we are reading every story, comment and message request for help.
-
Assemble
- To combat some coronavirus anxiety, we are hosting events 4 times a week! This includes a Board Game Night, Jackbox.tv Night, Movie Nights and Daily 24/7 music watching.
- We also have our our 24/7 Minecraft Server at http://mine.geekbacon.org/
- Our current event calendar
All are welcomed to share how COVID19 has affected their lives, and we're here to support you the best that we can.
We're stronger together!
