Jefferson County installs a deposit for Warm Springs donation collection

MADRAS, Oregon (KTVZ) – The Jefferson County Department of Public Health is partnering with Confederate Tribes in Warm Springs to collect much-needed donations for residents, adding families and homelessness.

Warm Springs’ dominance was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and continues under a warning to boil water as officials check the water formula after the weekend’s maintenance to a water line break.

This collaboration will ensure that the network’s wishes are met, officials said.

It is preferable to use new materials because the materials used must be quarantined before distribution.

Shampoo – Ecological

Antibacterial soaps (preferably Castile)

Deodorant (male and female)

Alcohol-free mouthwash

Small sunscreens and lotions

Flashlights (easy to pack, sun if possible)
