DHCHD is asking for help from our community as we prepare for COVID-19. We need medical face-masks and long sleeve medical protective gowns. In addition, if you have any long sleeve unused and new rain type poncho we are accepting those also.
These items can be dropped off at our collection location at 1411 Denver Ave Dalhart. Outside the main hospital entrance right off of Denver facing the Church of Christ there will be a collection basket outside of the hospital doors, please do not come inside to drop off masks and gowns.
We thank you in advance for your donation; we could not do this without our community!
