Project Protect is a fundraising campaign led by students at The University of Texas at Austin. Our mission is simple: to protect those who protect us. Every day, healthcare workers in our city, country, and across the world are on the frontlines of the fight against COVID-19. It is unacceptable that these heroes have to fear for their own safety, as well as the safety of their families. This is why Project Protect is raising money for Direct Relief, a humanitarian aid organization dedicated to equipping facilities in resource-poor areas with medicine and supplies. Direct Relief is currently responding to the COVID-19 pandemic in over 80 counties. Our goal is to raise $10,000 for this life-saving organization.
