HOPE VALLEY â Canonchet Cliffs resident Chris Hedenberg is driven to help whenever she can. Whether itâs making masks, mending medical scrubs or sending holiday greetings to nursing home residents, Hedenberg doesnât hesitate to lend a hand. A retiree who describes herself as sewing âfor about 100 years,â Hedenberg leads a group of about a dozen Canonchet Cliffs volunteers who began making masks for health care workers and emergency responders last April, when the shortage was at its worst. âWe found out that they were so out of stock everywhere, that the ambulance corps couldnât buy them even if they had the money, and we have a lot of volunteer ambulance people,â she said. âOur first batch, I made about four dozen or so for Hope Valley [Ambulance] because theyâre the ones who come over here all the time for us.â
