CORONAVIRUS: COVID-19 IS NOW A PANDEMIC. IN THE UNITED STATES ALONE, OVER 2,000 CASES HAVE BEEN REPORTED INCLUDING IN GUILFORD AND FORSYTH COUNTIES. THE REIDSVILLE OUTREACH CENTER WILL WORK HARD TO SUPPORT OUR FOOD DISTRIBUTION PROGRAM BY KEEPING HEALTH AND SAFETY AS A PRIORITY. OUR PRIMARY FOCUS IS KEEPING OUR STAFF, VOLUNTEERS AND CLIENTS SAFE.
THE REIDSVILLE OUTREACH CENTER WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE EVER-CHANGING DYNAMICS OF THE PANDEMIC AS WELL AS LISTEN TO THE ADVICE OF GOVERNMENT AND HEALTH OFFICIALS. AS WE WORK TO PREVENT THE SPREAD OF COVID-19 IN OUR COMMUNITY, IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO CHANGE HOW WE DO BUSINESS. HOURS OF OPERATION AND THE WAY WE DISTRIBUTE FOOD ITEMS MAY CHANGE BASED ON WHAT WE LEARN.
PLEASE BE MINDFUL OF EXECUTIVE ORDERS AND THINK SAFETY FIRST; YOURS AND OTHERS. AVOID LARGE CROWDS, MAINTAIN SUGGESTED DISTANCES FROM OTHERS, AVOID TOUCHING YOUR FACE ND WASH YOUR HANDS. IF SOAP AND WATER ARE NOT AVAILABLE, USE HAND SANITIZER. BE AWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS, STAY HOME IF NECESSARY AND PLEASE TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!
THE REIDSVILLE OUTREACH CENTER THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT, TIME AND ATTENTION DURING THIS UNPRECEDENTED TIME IN RECENT HISTORY.
SINCERELY,
ANNETTE BOLDEN, DIRECTOR
TOM J. HAM III, BOARD PRESIDENT
THE REIDSVILLE OUTREACH CENTER WILL NOT DISTRIBUTE FOOD ON MARCH 26, 2020.
