Since the activation of the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, resources suddenly became strained. Personal protective equipment, paper towels and even hand sanitizer evaporated seemingly overnight. Without the invaluable help of the Salvation Army Kroc Center in Coeur d’Alene, who not only became a hub for community donations but also staffed the donation center, resources for first responders could have vanished.
