COVID19 INFO - The safety and well-being of our community, staff and volunteers are important to Forgotten Harvest. We are monitoring the situation and taking our lead from the CDC. We are asking any person considering volunteering to please practice necessary safety precautions:
- Based on review of the current COVID-19 transmission in our area, FH no longer requires mask use indoors, but we encourage wearing masks/face coverings indoors.
- FH requests all members of FH’s team and our volunteers to respect and honor the rights of others who prefer to wear masks and also respect everyone’s safety choices during this transition time.
- Maintain social distancing.
- Continue personal health etiquette, including frequent handwashing or hand-sanitizing.
It is important to stay informed as these types of situations can be dynamic. If a volunteer opportunity is not appropriate for you and if you are interested in other ways that you can help, the latest information will be on our COVID-19 safety response page. https://www.forgottenharvest.org/COVID19/
