Title

Hand out: Thank you essential worker

Description

This was a handout I gave to essential workers (employees at grocery stores, pharmacies, garages, Agway, doctor's office, Tractor Supply Company as well as furnace repairman and electrician) during the pandemic. They were all hand-made and hand-laminated to preserve for the ages. Recipients were grateful and some were tearful when being recognized for their sacrifice. Back side encourages recipients to save it for family members to discover years from now and know what their family or friend contributed to all of us during the pandemic. I distributed these primarily in Washington county but also in Chittenden and Rutland counties.
