The Executive Committee of the Sonoma County COAD wants to make all of you aware of a request that has come from the County of Sonoma regarding unused, surplus PPE that COAD members and affiliated agencies may still have in storage from the Kincade Fire response. As you know supplies of these items are running critically low at health clinics and other medical facilities throughout the county. They include: · · Unopened boxes of medical OR construction-type N95 masks · · Unopened boxes of exam gloves- all sizes · · Unopened boxes or individually wrapped disposable gowns (used in medical and veterinary settings)

The County EOC has made an appeal to the COAD to donate surplus supplies so that they can be distributed to those medical facilities that are most in need of them. Major Rio Ray from the Salvation Army has generously offered to let us use his building located at 93 Stony Circle, Santa Rosa as the drop off location for this material.

· Drop Off Hours: Mon. thru Fri. 9:00-3:00 · People should speak with the person at the Front Desk: Mon. thru Wed. - Kathy; Thurs. & Fr.- Lydia & ask for either Major Rio or Patrick Thompson. · The Logistics Team at the EOC will make arrangements for pick-up if you can't deliver them.

Radio station KCZT will be making an appeal to the public as well. Any assistance your agencies can provide will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you. The Sonoma COAD Executive Committee
