Lending a Hand: Companies Donating Medical Supplies to Fight COVID-19

March 30, 2020

A crisis can often bring out the best in people and companies. And that has been the case with COVID-19.

There have been large gifts, such as the one given by Google, who has pledged $800 million to support small- and medium-sized businesses, governments, health organizations and health workers fighting COVID-19.

And there are companies who are donating masks to hospitals in their headquarter cities. 

Other companies, such as distilleries, are opening up their production facilities to produce needed products, while some industries, such as auto companies, are forging partnerships with medical companies to increase the production of critical medical supplies. 

This slideshow is just a very small depiction of the numerous ways that companies are providing assistance in this pandemic.
