The plane is expected to land at Boston Logan International Airport later Thursday.
The masks arriving represent a partial shipment, and the exact amounts of this shipment will be counted upon arrival and inspection.
In a statement, Kraft said he was "honored" to be a part of this humanitarian mission.
"I truly hope that in doing so, we can in some way inspire others to find creative ways to give more in support of our doctors, nurses and first responders. It's nice to care for those who provide such compassionate care for us," the statement read.
