In an effort to support healthcare employees on the frontline of fighting COVIG-19, The Akron NAACP and a coalition of African American Greek organizations will deliver 40-gallon crates of refreshments for environmental service workers at Akron Children’s Hospital, Cleveland Clinic Akron General, Summa Health System and Western Reserve Hospital.

This is an opportunity to say ‘Thank You’ to the men and women behind the scenes who work tirelessly for the health and well-being of all who work in and visit the hospital. The men and women who keep hospitals clean, sanitized and ready for business each day deserve applause as well.
This pandemic is demonstrating the essential tireless and often underrated role of the environmental services team. Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Omega Psi Fraternity, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority along with members of Akron NAACP salute all the essential hospital workers especially the environmental team members– They too are ‘Life Savers.’
