Hello again, 
  In light of the on-going necessity of precautions to prevent the spread 
of Bird Flu, AUA has set up a fund to support costs associated with 
purchasing personal protective equipment (PPE).  Up to $100 of PPE support 
is available for growers, farmed animal keepers, and members of organized 
wild bird stewardship organizations in the following counties: Cook, Lake, 
McHenry, DuPage, Kane, Kendall, Grundy, Will, and Kankakee. Funds are 
available through Friday, 2/28/25 or until funds are exhausted.  If you are 
interested and eligible, please fill out and submit this form 
<https://forms.gle/iZ2mcNmbbtCw6YjU8>. For recommendations on PPE to use, 
please check out our webpage 
<https://www.auachicago.org/news/avian-influenzanbsph5n1-bird-flu-resources-for-chicago-chicagoland-and-illinois-growers>.  
 Please feel free to share this offering with eligible members of your 
network. 

Thank you and take care, 
Viviana
