With the recent global outbreak of COVID-19, it's become clear that the world is now facing a near-unprecedented pandemic emergency. To aid in the fight against the virus, we're dedicating the first ever OmniFest to Direct Relief, a charity directly involved in fighting the coronavirus.

From their website (https://www.directrelief.org/emergency/coronavirus-outbreak/):

Direct Relief is coordinating with public health authorities, nonprofit organizations and businesses in the U.S., China and globally to provide personal protective equipment and essential medical items to health workers responding to coronavirus (COVID-19).

In the U.S., Direct Relief is delivering protective masks – along with exam gloves and isolation gowns – to health care organizations in areas with confirmed COVID-19 cases.

In China, Direct Relief has delivered via FedEx more than 30,000 pounds of protective gear — nearly 800,000 N95 and surgical masks, more than 400,000 gloves, and numerous coveralls, face shields, and shoe covers — to frontline health workers.

Direct Relief is also staging personal protective equipment with regional response agencies across the world, including in the Caribbean and South America through the Pan American Health Organization.
