ANN ARBOR -- Some walked, some drove and other rode bikes to bring whatever medical supplies they had to donate to UM Hospitals amid the coronavirus outbreak.
The donation center at the North Campus Research Complex on the corner of Huron parkway and Plymouth road in Ann Arbor opened on Saturday at noon. Within the first two hours, volunteers had already collected donations from almost 150 cars.
"It's very touching to see so many people," said Katie Doyle, a Clinical Assistant Professor at UM's School of Social Work. Doyle, along with several other volunteers put on their protective gear and spent their day collecting donations.
The donation center is collecting several items, including disposable gloves, masks, gowns, surgical caps, foot covers, N95 masks, eye protective gear, hand sanitizer and bleach or microbial wipes.
Julie Smith, an AP Biology teacher at Greenhills School, reached out to her department looking for whatever supplies they had after a chaplain from her church reached out to her about the donation center.
Smith donated disposable gloves and plans on going back to Greenhills to collect whatever safety goggles they have to donate as well.
"Whatever we can do to help," said Smith.
The donation center will be open Monday-Friday from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. and from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. on weekends at 2800 Plymouth road.
