In support of healthcare providers treating patients with COVID-19, BAPS Charites donated over 100 hand sanitizer bottles and protective eyewear to Hackensack Meridian Health JFK Medical Center in Edison, New Jersey.

As COVID-19 cases rapidly increase in the United States, many hospitals are in need of personal protective equipment (PPE) and additional supplies of disinfectants.  Healthcare professionals rely on PPE to protect themselves and their patients from being infected and infecting others.

Srikanth Jaikumar, Vice President, Ambulatory Services and Program Development, accepted the donation on behalf of JFK Medical center and expressed immense gratitude for the donation. “My fellow volunteers and I really appreciate everything the hospital is doing, it’s tremendous,” said Biral Patel, BAPS Charities volunteer.
