Okay I guess I don’t need to tell you what Covid-19 is. But while we wait for therapies and vaccines, we can stop the spread of the virus in a fun, cheap and easy way by each of us remembering to wash our hands for more than 20 seconds more often.
We will use 1/3 of the proceeds to donate to research into a cure for the coronavirus, & do a “one for one “system where we donate a free bracelet to communities at high risk of Covid-19 cases.
My name is Don, I am founder of Do Me A Favour Buddy, the people-powered kindness platform that matches people to do acts of kindness in their community www.dmafb.me . We are a global team of people who want to spread viral kindness.
We already have prototypes ready for sale, and are working on the online store.
We need help marketing, spreading the word, we need translators for German, coders for an app idea connected to it, and just passionate people to network with, if we can help with anything we are happy to.

Hi Don, this could be very helpful for people like me who find it really challenging to know when 20 seconds are over. Do you have a video that shows how these bands change color over time, and how you can see when you have washed your hands long enough? I think a short video would also be helpful to make this go viral!

Hi Holger, that is a great suggestion, I will work on shooting one this week, thank you so much for the feedback
Holger Hoffmann-Riem says:
Have fun, and I am looking forward to seeing the video!

I welcome any other ideas, I also will look into doing Swiss colours, and setting up a programme where we could give them for free to children going back to school. What do you think?
Holger Hoffmann-Riem says:
I think Swiss colours might help, but my suggestion would be to invite as many people as possible to share their thoughts here (not just those who have already submitted an idea) – and to make them feel part of a movement I would ask them which colours they would like to buy. For example you could set up a little Google form and embed the link here. If 100 people tell you which colours they like best, you will be in a much better position to decide! And you will also have an idea of how many people might be willing in buying one!

That is a golden idea….
Holger Hoffmann-Riem says:
Then go for it. I don’t know how many people you can get to fill in your survey, but you could ask them for two things:
a) tell me which colour you like
b) press the “vote” button here on solve for tomorrow (that’s the check box at the bottom of your idea)

Thanks for the advice, we are looking into it.

That’s kind of a fun idea. At what point, does the bracelet change back into normal color? And is that an indication to go wash hands again? Does it also work with hand sanitizer? Best, Mirjam
