Guidance for Making Deliveries

Please keep in mind that physical infrastructure is in a fragile state at this point in recovery. 

• Complete the GCCLP Donation Form (for in-kind item donation). Our climate disaster recovery coordinator will get back to you.

• If you are planning on bringing supplies be prepared and self-sustained with your own supplies and move in and out.

• We are still in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic: be sure to wear a mask, maintain physical distance, and be respectful of people’s health and safety needs.
