| WHO: | RPP Products CEO Eric Zwigart and his team will deliver 250 gallons of hand sanitizer to help Los Angeles’ homeless population fight the COVID-19 crisis.

Price, Jr. (District 9) will also be touring the facility at that time and may be available for comment. | |

RPP Products, a Southern California-based motor oil and lubricants company, pivoted operations in just seven days and began making FDA-approved hand sanitizer to help fill the need. The company is committed to donating hand sanitizer to homeless shelters, food banks and other vital community services across the country for as long as it’s needed and while supplies last. | |
