face masks at the L.E. Phillips Career Development Center.
Eisenhuth is an LECDC employee and Mizerk is president and CEO of
the LECDC. He ran with the idea of creating specialty masks after
an employee suggested it in October.
EAU CLAIRE â Making holiday face masks was a lighthearted suggestion from an employee, but Gregg Mizerk took the idea to heart and began turning it into reality shortly afterward.
Mizerk, president and CEO of L.E. Phillips Career Development Center, was open to a new product in addition to protective white face masks the LECDC began creating and donating this spring shortly after the COVID-19 pandemic hit in full force. LECDC employee Brenda Richardson suggested making face masks with holiday themes. Richardson later told Mizerk she was kidding, but he ran with the idea.

As a result, in October the nonprofit began producing specialty masks. The new offerings included a spider web and jack-oâ-lantern for Halloween, a turkey for Thanksgiving and Santa Claus for Christmas. The organization also produced Green Bay Packers masks for employees.
