Philadelphia leaders are making sure that businesses have the proper equipment to safely reopen in this pandemic. Yesterday morning, at the pennsylvania convention center city council members teamed up with the city's department of commerce to assemble about 10 000 starter kits, each kit is filled with personal protective equipment like hand sanitizer and face masks. City council president daryl clark says it will help boost the economy.

Businesses will get the kits next week. Neighborhood community development corporations will deliver them.
