PCS receives donated health and safety supplies
Country Supply in partnership with the True Value Foundation, is providing free health and safety products to Perkins County Schools through the Educational Heroes Safety Campaign.
To ensure the health and safety of students, teachers, administrators and staff, Country Supply donated over $500 worth of hand sanitizer and germicidal cleaner.
Superintendent Phillip Picquet said the cleaning products would be used on door handles and other high traffic areas to keep them sanitized.
Picquet added that the school gives a big thank you to those involved in the donation.
At the beginning of the pandemic, True Value Manufacturing retooled its Easy Care paint production facility in Cary, Illinois, to produce FDA-approved hand sanitizer and other essential cleaning products to meet unprecedented nationwide consumer demand for health and cleaning essentials.
In August of last year, the True Value Foundation decided to go even further to address growing public needs for these products as schools reopened by launching the Educational Heroes Safety campaign.
This collaborative effort between the company and its independent retailers aims to keep America’s kids learning while keeping all frontline educational heroes safe.
