Esta historia viene de Lucia Gaspar, una promotora en la región del Valle de San Luis en Colorado. A principios de febrero, Lucía y otras promotoras se pusieron en contacto con el almacén Valley Root de Mosca (Colorado) para preguntar qué necesitaban sus empleados y ofrecerse a ayudar a proporcionar suministros a los trabajadores agrícolas. Lucia y las otras promotoras pudieron entregar paquetes para treinta y dos trabajadores que contenían 3 mascarillas quirúrgicas, dos mascarillas N95, y una mascarilla lavable. También pudieron entregar al almacén cuatro botellas grandes de desinfectante de manos, así como cuatro rollos de toallitas desinfectantes. Las promotoras también pudieron entregar cajas de comida para los trabajadores siempre que tenían alguna disponible, por lo que el empresario se mostró sumamente agradecido.
