Forsyth Chamber launches initiative to thank local healthcare workers

FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — Healthcare workers have faced unprecedented stress, strain and risk in the last year, and the Forsyth County Chamber of Commerce is seeking the community’s help to save those on the frontlines of the fight against COVID-19. On March 3, the Chamber announced its “FoCo4Frontliners” initiative, and community activist Mary Helen McGruder outlined the program to the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners at its March 4 meeting. The program was launched to raise funds to purchase a FoCo4Frontliners T-shirt for each of the 3,200 employees at Northside Hospital Forsyth. McGruder said a few ideas to show thanks were considered, and hospital employees were in favor of the shirts, which have been approved by the hospital for employees to wear in lieu of scrub tops.

COVID-19 showcased the courage and dedication of many in our community, but perhaps the most critical and self-sacrificing of all are Forsyth County’s frontline medical personnel.  FoCo4Frontliners was created to thank the brave members of our health care sector, beginning with the 3,200 employees at Northside Hospital Forsyth. The FoCo4Frontliners fund will provide each employee with an official FoCo4Frontliners T-shirt. These shirts have been approved by Northside Hospital administration to wear at work. Additionally, the project strives to provide as many staff members as possible with Visa gift cards to show appreciation to these individual healthcare workers.
