NENYCOSH on Univision Albany!
We were awarded a grant from the Hispanics in Philanthropy Essential Fund to provide much-needed Personal Protective Equipment supplies, education and training to Latinx essential workers throughout the Capital Region. The funds allowed us to provide PPE kits to 500 workers throughout the area, and train them on how to properly wear the equipment.
Back in September, we were featured on Univision Albany for our PPE Training and Kit event. Check out the story below!
