PPE Distribution Update

May 1, 2020

Tomorrow (SATURDAY MAY 2nd) is our first PPE PICKUP DAY!

The sites in Charleston, Columbia, and Greenville were set up today. Not all of the PPE we expected was in the pallets we received this morning. A fair distribution is being allocated into each individual order by our volunteer logistics team. Each order is being boxed individually with care by our volunteers. There is plenty of material for everyone, and all the orders will be filled as our process becomes more streamlined. Another flight arrived in the US last night and more products are headed our way next week.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

1. Your order will be ready for pickup at the SITE you designated when placing the order.
2. All Sites open 8:30am – 1:00pm. We only have access during this time.
3. We cannot store PPE not picked up. Please make arrangements accordingly.

SITES:
Charleston: 4400 Leeds Ave; North Charleston, SC 29405
Columbia: 9710 Two Notch Road, Columbia, SC 29223
Greenville: 1000 Executive Center Drive, SC 29615

4. There will be a LEAD person at each site for inquiries. Please acknowledge our volunteers!

CCMS is working VERY hard for you.
