First, we heard from Kezia Fitzgerald, co-founder of CareAline based in Massachusetts. They produce reusable PPE for healthcare workers. Fitzgerald is a cancer survivor and recent stem-cell transplant recipient, so her work has taken on a new meaning during this pandemic.
Then, host Arun Rath spoke with Rabbi Allison Poirier from Temple Beth Sholom in Framingham about her "Park and Pray" summer series where congregants and non-congregants alike gather each Friday night in their cars to sing and pray together while socially distanced.
Segments:
Kezia Fitzgerald - 2:15
Rabbi Allison Poirier - 16:55
