The Medical Association of the State of Alabama and partner county medical societies, in an effort to assist member physicians and other healthcare professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic, are hosting a statewide PPE donation day on Monday, April 13 at various locations around Alabama. The public and businesses from around the state are encouraged to donate any extra PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) they might have to help medical staff on the front lines striving to help our sick and keep the virus from spreading.
Donations can be dropped off at the Huntsville/Madison County Chamber, 225 Church Street NW Huntsville AL 35801, on Monday any time between 8am-5pm. All donations will go towards Madison County Medical Society.
The following items are being requested:
- N95 masks
- surgical masks
- isolation gowns
- gloves (latex and latex free)
- face shields
- sterile specimen collection swabs
- commercial grade bleach wipes
- alcohol wipes, and hand sanitizer (70% ethyl alcohol)
After Monday April 13th: if people or companies would like to donate supplies, we will continue to serve as a drop-off location for the Madison County Medical Society, which distributes the items to local doctors’ offices and health clinics. We’re here Monday through Friday, 8am-5pm. We are closed to the public, but have a sign on the door for people to call us at 256-535-2000 – we are happy to come out and meet you to accept some items.
