Disney Parks donates supplies to hospitals fighting coronavirus

Disney has donated 150,000 rain ponchos to MedShare


Disney Parks are donating supplies to hospitals and medical professionals that are in need, according to an article on the Disney Dining website.

Disney Parks has donated 150,000 rain ponchos to MedShare, a humanitarian aid organization, for distribution to hospitals in need.

The idea was inspired by nurses who found that ponchos can be used to protect their clothing and prolong the use of PPE.

Disney Parks also recently donated more than 100,000 N95 masks to the states of New York, California and Florida.
