Public asked to donate personal protective equipment for frontline workers

 

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Milwaukee's Department of Health and Human Services is now collecting all kinds of personal protective equipment for medical workers. 

The collection is taking place every day from 7 a.m. - 7 p.m. at State Fair Park until further notice.

One woman brought supplies she had on hand after a recent shopping trip.

"My sister-in-law took me to Sam's Club and I always get extra stuff and so I was able to get some extra gloves and some extra hand sanitizer before the announcements went out that there was gonna be a problem," she said. 

If you have supplies to donate, please bring them to the Tommy Thompson Youth Center at State Fair Park.
