Luzerne County Head Start, Inc. recently received a generous donation of PPE and sanitation supplies from the Moses Taylor Foundation and AllOne Foundation & Charities. The donation was part of a larger effort to provide school nurses throughout the Foundation’s 11-county region with these materials.

The kit included 20 KN 95 masks, 10 face shields, 750 disinfectant wipes, 250 adult 3 ply masks, 50 pediatric 3 ply masks, 20 gowns, 1,000 nitrile gloves and four hand sanitizer pumps.

Luzerne County Head Start re-opened several of its Head Start Pre-K/Counts classrooms on March 15th, nearly one year after the agency suspended in-person learning. The supplies will be used to help clean the facilities and to keep children and staff safe while they are in the classroom.
