Reilly Opelka has a passion for fashion and views it as a vital form of self-expression. He also has a passion for helping people, which is why he donated 500 handmade masks from his favorite independent fashion company, Mulch California, to his hometown city of Palm Coast, Fla., where he grew up.

“It was the perfect opportunity to support one another and give back, Opelka told news-journalonline.com . "Palm Coast is where I grew up, it’s where my parents still live, so it’s pretty much still home for me. A lot of people are still working through this difficult situation and experiencing some tough times.”

Opelka wasn’t about to let his people walk around with unfashionable masks, not on his watch.
