The Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office
is requesting donations of homemade face masks for the most vulnerable in our
community. Donated face masks will be distributed in high-density hi-rises and
other multi-family dwellings where the potential for community spread of
Coronavirus (COVID-19) is extremely high. Donated masks will also help keep our first responders safe.
To facilitate compliance with the
Governor’s Stay at Home Executive Order, the Sheriff’s Help Team—made-up of
first responders with appropriate safety equipment—can pick up donations of
homemade masks outside of homes or businesses.
To schedule a pick-up:
Pick-ups can be scheduled Monday
through Friday from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm and Saturday and Sunday from 10:00 am to
4:00 pm.
