West Columbia, SC (Diana Nation) – The Greater Cayce West Columbia Chamber of Commerce has been contacted regarding a need in their community. A couple of the local retirement centers, Still Hopes and Laurel Crest, currently have supplies to operate safely but their current inventory will run out shortly. The Chamber will be collecting supplies at their office every weekday starting tomorrow, Thursday, April 9 and running through Friday, April 17. The drop-off will be open from 9 AM to Noon.
There are a couple of ways to donate. The first option is to bring the donation to the Chamber office. They will have a van in their parking lot that will be open. This will allow you to have a no contact drop-off. For larger donations, drop-off outside the normal hours or donation pick-ups, email Chamber President and CEO Richard Skipper to coordinate at richard@cwcchamber.com.
Supplies that are needed include the following:
Masks
Dust (all employees campus wide are required to wear)
N95 (medical staff)
Homemade (residents and staff)
Disposable Gloves
Disposable Gowns
Hand Sanitizer
Disinfectant
Shoe Booties
Industrial Cleaning Wipe
Chamber President Skipper would like to thank you in advance for helping their local retirement communities. The Chamber is extending a special thanks to Paul Prince, owner of Door to Door Floors, for donating the use of his company van and handling distribution to the retirement centers. Any additional retirement centers can contact Paul at paul@doortodoorfloors.com for consideration.
