With a shortage of N-95 face masks used by health care and first responders, the White House has called for donations to local hospitals from construction contractors and other industries that have supplies on hand.

Some ÀÏÅ£Ó°ÊÓmembers have already donated masks and other essential materials. Examples include:

• ÀÏÅ£Ó°ÊÓGreater Michigan’s Pioneer Construction Inc. donated 600 masks with its subcontractor partners Kent Concrete Co., Grand River Construction Inc. and Bouma Corp.
• and Wilmar Electric Service donated masks to Bryan Medical Center.
• ÀÏÅ£Ó°ÊÓPelican members B & H Distributors Inc. and Brown & Root Industrial Services donated nitrile gloves, masks and glasses to several local hospitals in Louisiana.

Contact your local hospital if you have inventory to donate.
