The Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Redlands-Riverside’s Hansberger Clubhouse in Redlands will be one of the distribution sites, according to a news release.
People are invited to stop by the clubhouse at 1251 Clay St. between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. to pick up 20 disposable face masks, while supplies last.
Ford dealerships in the area that are also distributing masks include Ken Grody Ford, 1121 W. Colton Ave., Redlands; Fairview Ford, 292 N. G St., San Bernardino; and Raceway Ford, 5900 Sycamore Canyon Blvd., Riverside.
