Through its 100 Million Mask Challenge AHA partnered with Microsoft, UPS, Kaiser Permanente, Goodwill, Merit Solutions and consulting firm Kearney to create HealthEquip, a smart app to connect hospitals treating COVID-19 patients with donations of personal protective equipment. The app matches donors with hospitals in their area based on demand to facilitate distributing critically needed PPE to front-line health care workers. Hospitals and donors can register their PPE needs and supplies online.
