We also received donations of funds from the @NCDCgov as well as medical supplies from IRASA Clothing Company.
Let me also use this opportunity to thank Chicken Republic, Dominos Pizza and all other organisations and individuals who have supported the state’s effort in preventing the spread of COVID-19 through donations in cash and kind.
