School supplies: 64,380 gloves, 1,575 masks for PPE drive

EVERETT — The school district worker’s vehicle was chock-full of supplies, but not for the classroom.

Inside were 64,380 pairs of medical gloves, 1,575 face masks and 90 gowns.

Mukilteo School District dug into its supply closets to help protect people on the front lines fighting the coronavirus.

Snohomish County agencies are having a collection drive this week for personal protective equipment as well as hand sanitizer and disinfectant wipes.

“The span of people in the community needing protection is vast,” said Scott North, Snohomish County Department of Emergency Management spokesman.

Not only first responders and medical workers need products to keep them safe.
