The City Council has authorized the City to donate excess personal protective equipment (PPE) to local organizations over several phases. The first phase was approved in June of 2023 and was completed in January of 2024. Because the City still has excess PPE available, the City is now adding additional phases, which include a broader scope of entities that are eligible to receive the PPE.
Hand sanitizer is no longer available, but there are plenty of masks still available. Any businesses with a permanent address in the City of Fort Worth are now eligible for the PPE Donation Program.
Interested entities should submit their PPE order using the online form. The form must be completely filled out and any requested supporting information must be attached. The City will do its best to ensure that all requests are at least partially filled, but orders will be handled on a first-come, first-served basis.
Forms can be submitted to be processed, with requests closing on Oct. 31, or when all PPE has been given out. Forms should be submitted as soon as possible. Once forms are received, the City will contact organizations to schedule a pickup time.
