The New York Society of Cosmetic Chemists has donated more than 8,000 bottles of FDA-approved hand sanitizers to frontline workers in New York and New Jersey medical centers, hospitals, care centers and veteran and nursing homes.
The sanitizers were manufactured by a NYSCC member company. Many member companies in the personal care and product development space either donated or switched their manufacturing process at the start of the pandemic to produce products for frontline workers. In addition, COVID survival kits that include masks, handle protectors, hand sanitizers will be distributed to several of the NYSCC sister chapters and select members.
According to Albert Gehres, deputy commissioner, office of emergency management, Suffolk County, through the generosity of NYSCC, and others, their facility has been able to distribute almost 7 million PPE items to frontline healthcare and civil servant workers and small businesses that need protection.
