San Clemente COVID-19 Waves of Support Yard Signs

Donation protected
The "San Clemente Waves of Support" project is a local residential effort to show our gratitude and appreciation for our fellow San Clemente COVID-19 support workers!  This project is primarily to shout out a giant "thank you" via yard signs to all the Healthcare Workers, First Responders and Essential Workers helping us survive this crisis.  They are putting their lives at risk daily for people they do not even know in our community! 

We are distributing yard signs with a suggested $10 or more donation. If you would like a yard sign, please send a private message with a San Clemente delivery address and phone number along with your donation.  Signs will be placed on front porch in order to honor social distancing.

If you have an idea for how to recognize healthcare workers, first responders, and essential workers in San Clemente, please email your idea to [email redacted] and we will consider all requests.  Please include contact name and phone number to facilitate donation.

One of the frequent questions we have been asked is if there is antibody testing at the drive-up testing site, and the answer at the moment is no.  We will update if that changes. The drive-up testing site is now providing pre-op testing for surgery patients needing COVID-19 clearance as well as testing for those with a doctor's order who are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms.  

Thank you so very much for your support and for the community spirit that has been felt throughout these uncertain times.  We love San Clemente!
