Riviera S. '23 Creates Scrub Bags for Front Line Health Workers
A young girl has switched her focus from sewing pillowcases to stitching together scrub bags for nurses and physicians fighting COVID-19.
Riviera Steinberg, a 14-year-old Strathcona-Tweedsmuir School student, began sewing pillowcases for troubled youth fleeing domestic abuse in 2018. The idea was that although they might be displaced with foster homes or shelters, they would always have one thing that was their own and could bring them hope.
