JPS Health Network is grateful for the support of its community members, as our staff works tirelessly to care for patients in this challenging time. Many of you continue to ask how to best help—here are some answers to frequently asked questions.
SUPPLY DONATIONS:
Supplies of N95 respirator masks, routine-use masks, gloves, sanitary wipes, hand sanitizer and other cleaning supplies are in high demand. If you have these kinds of supplies to donate, please contact us at covidsupplies@jpshealth.org to make arrangements and for additional information. Offers of healthcare equipment, usable space, and other offers should also reach out to us at covidsupplies@jpshealth.org for guidance.
FINANCIAL DONATIONS:
To assist financially, donations are being collected by the JPS Foundation through their website: https://jpshealthnet.org/foundation/donate. Financial donations will be used in a variety of ways, from needed equipment to support for JPS team members. Questions about monetary donations should be directed to J.R. Labbe, Senior Vice President of Community Affairs and Development at jlabbe@jpshealth.org or 817-702-1616.
FOOD DONATIONS:
Many local businesses have reached out to support JPS team members with donations of food.
While we are most grateful for all gifts, for safety reasons we cannot accept homemade food. All food donations must be from certified food handlers from places like restaurants, caterers, bakeries. Delivery arrangements must be made ahead of time with Kim Pinter, manager of Volunteer Services at kpinter@jpshealth.org or 817-702-1685.
Again, JPS Health Network is grateful for any and all support from the community it serves. Thank you for thinking of our 7,200 team members and our patients.
