The County of Nevada Office of Emergency Services Is Providing No Cost Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to Small Businesses - One-Time Opportunity on First-Come, First-Serve Basis.

We are happy to work with the C ounty of Nevada Office of Emergency Services (OES) in offering local small business owners, with 25 employees or less, a 30-day supply of masks and hand sanitizer for each employee at no cost - This Includes REALTORS. This personal protective equipment (PPE) has been made available to California small businesses through the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (CalOES) in collaboration with the Office of the Small Business Advocate (CalOSBA).

A good portion of the 2 ,600 gallons of hand sanitizer and 314,000 disposable surgical masks have already been claimed.

To request PPE, small business owners must complete an online application in advance in order to expedite the processing and distribution of PPE. Please use put Thursday at 9am pick-up if you want Kathy Hinman to pick up your order for you and avoid the long car line at the Old Corp Site. Use this link to apply: https://bit.ly/SmallBusinessPPERequestForm .

After completing the online PPE request form, small businesses should print the first page of their confirmation email to serve as a receipt. The printed receipt will be exchanged for the PPE.

Again, K athy Hinman is happy to receive your receipt and pick up your order for delivery at the association as it will spare you the time in the long car lines. *** OES recommends completing the form right away as this opportunity is available while supplies last, July 21-23. Pre-orders are required. See Link Above.
