The scope of the HANDMEDALPROJECT is vast, its aim is straightforward: for artists, jewelers, students and professionals to craft medals that will honor the service and sacrifice of health workers during COVID-19. Infused with the gratitude of the ex-voto and the tribute of a medal, these hands will be made and collected from the beginning of May until the end of October, then bestowed upon medical workers the second Sunday in November. We will hand the hands over to one giver per institution.
