“Community First believes that keeping our community healthy is important. By wearing a face mask, you are helping to protect not only yourself, but your neighbors and loved ones, too. Through this decorating contest, our goal was to encourage children in our community to wear masks by seeing it as a form of expression instead of as a task. And who better to design a mask that kids want to wear than other kids!” says, Judy Razo, Director, Corporate Communications & Marketing, Community First Health Plans.

Winners were announced on March 1st and each winner will receive artist’s credit for their design. Community First is also honoring each winner with an award recognizing their efforts at the school or community center of their choice. In addition, 1000 face masks will be printed and distributed to each winner to share with their classmates or community center. The winning face masks may also be distributed by Community First at future community outreach events.

All artists, creative types, and aspiring designers of all ages participated in creating an original face mask design and were asked to get colorful, creative and to #MakeMasksFun. No purchase was necessary to participate and the contest was open to residents of all ages in Bexar, Atascosa, Bandera, Comal, Guadalupe, Kendall, Medina, and Wilson counties only.
