V/A - Defending the Commonwealth (A Benefit Compilation to Fight the COVID-19 Pandemic) CS

Artist: Various Artists

Label: Patient Zero Records

CN: PZ019

These were originally selling for $10. I got a batch back from Revelation Records. Because ALL DONATIONS HAVE BEEN MADE on this project, and these were donated at the wholesale price of $7, I am selling them for $7 to cover the donation already made in 2020.

Defending the Commonwealth is a benefit compilation to raise money to help fight the COVID-19 pandemic. All profits from this release are being donated to the Massachusetts General Hospital Emergency Relief Fund. These courageous individuals are fighting a war on the front lines like one we have not seen before.

Here are a few of the ways the dollars are being put to work.

*Development of an in-house testing capability, to meet the needs of the
patients and health care workers.

*Purchase of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for health care
workers.

*Innovative solutions for device development and production (3D
printing for masks for example).

*Support of COVID-19 Hotline for patients, in particular staffing the
operation with an adequate number of interpreters to help non-English
speaking patients access information.

*Enhancement of telemedicine capabilities, to ensure patients have a
reasonable alternative to physically visiting the hospital, thereby
averting possible exposure to the virus.

*Subsidization of childcare costs for essential hospital employees,
whose children are home due to school closures.

36 Bands, 10 Labels, and 90 minutes of hardcore. All for a great cause.
