Harris County Sheriff’s Office Receives Major Donation from H-Force

What: The Harris County Sheriff’s Office is accepting delivery of 1,000 face shields and 1,000 sewn cloth masks donated by the H-Force. Led by the Houston Community College, H-Force is a crisis collaborative born out of the community’s need to increase the supply of personal protective equipment (PPE) – in particular for our healthcare workers and first responders – to help stop the spread of COVID-19. Community members can support H-Force’s efforts by volunteering to produce PPE and/or by making a financial contribution. Donated funds and materials help to ensure H-Force can continue to provide PPE donations, like the one to HCSO. To learn more, visit www.thehforce.org.
