The Elkhart County COVID-19 Incident Management team appreciates offers from businesses to help us ensure the availability of critical protective and lifesaving resources to get to the right place, at the right time, and in the right quantity. They are working to marshal every source of medical supplies and equipment, and facilitate the generous donations.
At this time they are asking all businesses that would like to donate supplies contact us through district2command@elkhartpolice.org. Emergency Management is using the warehouses as space to house and be a repository for disbursement. Those wanting to donate may also contact the EMA office at 574-891-2238 to arrange drop off dates and times.
They are distributing to all forms of health care (hospitals, long-term care facilities, first responders, and others based on need). We are in need of the following:
- Surgery Masks
- N95 Masks
- R95/ R100 Masks
- Gowns, Tyvek suits
- Large quantities of homemade masks
- Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
- Goggles, glasses, shields
