ASK members, Toni Treppa and Pat Reimer, delivered a large order to Harborview on Friday August 14th. Orders hadn’t been fulfilled for quite some time, potentially due to some changes due to Covid-19. It is great that our Assistance League of the Eastside Philanthropic programs are making the necessary changes in order to fulfill orders and stay safe while doing so. Teams are wearing facial coverings and physically distancing while working in the warehouse, and always wearing their masks while in contact with our hospital partners.

Anecdotally from several hospitals, we are hearing that sexual assaults outside the home are down during the Covid-19 pandemic, while intimate partner assaults and domestic violence are on the rise. We are continuing our mission to help as many survivors as we can during this challenging time.
