We here at DuBois Cricket Wireless would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a safe and healthyspring season! As I’m sure you are all aware of the COVID-19 situation across the country, we wanted to

take a few minutes of your time to speak about what we as a business have been doing and what we hopeto offer to our customers in these unforeseen circumstances. First off, we are hoping that this pandemicresolves and that we can resume our lives as before, connecting with people in person and sharing our

stories. However, while we combat this situation as a country, DuBois Cricket Wireless remains in businessas an essential business in the telecommunications industry. Our job is to make sure that people can at the

very least stay connected via the cellular community, staying in each other’s touch, letting loved ones knowthey are doing well, and maintaining our spirits to the best of our abilities. While we are keeping our

reduced business hours (listed below) in the service of our customers, it becomes increasingly important torealize the safety behind doing this and the reality of staying afloat. From a safety standpoint, we are

following all the guidelines provided by the authorities to make sure that we are able to offer our serviceswithout contributing to the growth of this pandemic. All of our employees have been made aware of the

situation and are acting responsibly to take care of themselves while taking care of our customers. On the other hand, if any of our customers have cellular needs, we would be happy to see them at our

store in small numbers, keeping with the guidelines as put forth nationally. This would help us as a small business to remain in business and have a future beyond this pandemic.

We look forward to seeing you if need be and serving you as always!

Chain Management has issued a list of the supplies that may potentially be needed: N95 respirator

Companies seeking to Import or Manufacture Medical Products to Aid the U.S. Response to

COVID-19: If a company would like to import or produce medical products to help with the COVID-

19 response, please send these inquiries to FEMA at covidsupplies@fema.dhs.gov. Please include as

many details as possible about the request (e.g., manufacturer name, address, product, and model

Clearly Ahead Development has been working with Pennsylvania's Department of Community &

Economic Development (DCED) to identify ways to alleviate some of the financial strains that the

Covid-19 pandemic is causing to businesses in the Commonwealth. We are pleased to announce

DCED launched a new funding program called the "Covid-19 Working Capital Access" program. This

loan program will REIMBURSE eligible companies for working capital expenses that have been

incurred within the past 3 months from the date of application. This means that a company which

applies for funding from this program will need to provide documentation for every single

reimbursable expense the business would like to receive funding for as working capital. If you wish to

apply for CWCA funds, please send an email to Rob Swales (rswales@clearlyahead.com) or Paul

McCloskey (pmccloskey@clearlyahead.com) indicating that you would

like to apply to the CWCA program.

Chamber Business Members, we will get through this together. Although our Chamber

office is closed for walk-ins during this time, we’re still here for you in any way we can

be. If your business is able to remain open and you’re providing services or sale of

products – we want to know about it. Please reach out to us and include the

following: your service/product, business hours, contact information and current

company logo. We will help spread the word.
