Buy one, give one. Face Shield Company Gives Back to local Hospitals
Black Friday special turned into an opportunity to give
Columbia, SC (Dec. 28, 2020) – ZVerse announced that they will be running a buy one, give one for their Black Friday special. Throughout Black Friday each ZShield that was purchased on ZShield.com ZVerse has matched the purchase with a Health Shield donation to various rural hospitals in South Carolina.
Based in Columbia, South Carolina, digital manufacturing company ZVerse adapted its business model in late March to accelerate the mass production of personal protective equipment (PPE) – specifically face shields – in response to COVID-19. ZVerse is now able to produce hundreds of thousands of face shields per day, all designed, sourced, and made in the USA.
In order to continue to help meet the need for protective face coverings, ZVerse is continuing to grow its product line and continuing to give back by serving our communities. Over 400 Health Shields have been donated to eight rural hospitals in need of additional PPE.
"Our rural hospitals were delighted to receive this unexpected donation. As we all know, healthcare workers have been working tirelessly on the front lines of this pandemic, and sometimes have had to make do with limited supplies of PPE," said Sarah Craig, director of health system innovation for the SC Office of Rural Health. "We share in their gratitude to Zverse for making sure the safety needs of our rural providers are not overlooked."
The South Carolina Office of Rural Health (SCORH) is a non-profit organization with a mission to close the gap in health status and life expectancy between rural and urban communities in the Palmetto State. SCORH has been promoting investment, opportunity and health within rural communities since 1991.
With 27 percent of our state’s residents living in rural areas, SCORH believes in preserving the unique character of rural communities without compromising their opportunities and access to critical services.
