Free Face Masks for Springfield Small Businesses: Arrange for Pick-up or Delivery
The City of Springfield and the Springfield Area Chamber of Commerce have been partnering for free face mask pick-up days over the past few weeks for Springfield small businesses community. Due to the overwhelming need and an effort to support small business, staff will now shift to arranged pick-ups or deliveries in order to spread this effort to those that have been unable to pick them up during the weekly drop-in events.
Any small business (50 employees or less) currently operating in Springfield is eligible for a one-time pick-up or delivery. These masks have been provided by Business Oregon and are meant for either business employees or patrons, at the discretion of the business, and are not medical grade.
Wearing masks is a critical tool in curbing the transmission of COVID19. By wearing masks, individuals are communicating care for the health of those around them. We know at times patrons and employees may forget to wear their masks when in public settings. We hope that this limited supply of extra resources might assist our small business communities’ ability to offer a mask to patrons or employees when needed.
When arranging pick-up or delivery, businesses will be asked to provide a business name, their business’s physical address, and minimal contact information for verification of being located in Springfield. For more information or to schedule a pick-up or drop off, please contact:
