Michigan zoo donates meals, protective equipment

Binder Park Zoo staff donated medical supplies to Bronson Healthcare


A Battle Creek, Mich.-area zoo has donated personal protective equipment and prepared meals to Bronson Healthcare during the coronavirus crisis, according to an article on the MLive website.

The Binder Park Zoo donated personal protective equipment from the zoo’s veterinary hospital — including face shields, N95 masks, disposable gowns, surgical masks and caps, foot covers and gloves.

The zoo’s two restaurants also had a substantial inventory of food, and staff decided it best to use the food to help those in need during the coronavirus emergency.

Around 300 meals were prepared and donated to S.A.F.E. Place of Battle Creek, United Way of Albion/Homer and Marshall House. Staff at the zoo also donated enough bulk food for an additional 400 meals delivered to Share Center of Battle Creek.
