During this time of uncertainty, we would like you to know that the brothers of Euclid Lodge are only a phone call away should you need any assistance with shopping, or transit to and from appointments, or even just a friendly ear.
If you are not in the New Jersey area, and need assistance please reach out to one of the numbers listed below as well, and we will locate an area lodge that may be able to help. Or a community action center that will be better able to assist with your local needs.There is a quite a bit of misinformation that is being passed around. Please be careful!
Please follow the guidelines set forth by your local and state officials.
For example, the CDC (Centers for Disease Control) recommends the following:
Clean surfaces that are handled on a regular basis after each use.
Wash your hands on a regular basis.
1. Wet your hands with clean, running water (warm or cold), turn off the tap, and apply soap.
2. Lather your hands by rubbing them together with the soap.
Rub your hands together with the soap, making sure to lather the backs of your hands, between your fingers, and under your nails (you can do this by scrubbing the nails of one hand on the palm of your other hand). “Lathering and scrubbing hands creates friction, which helps lift dirt, grease, and microbes from skin,” the CDC explains, adding that you should pay special attention to your fingernails. “Microbes are present on all surfaces of the hand, often in particularly high concentration under the nails, so the entire hand should be scrubbed,” per the CDC.
3. Keep rubbing your hands together for at least 20 seconds.
4. Rinse your hands well under clean, running water
5. Dry your hands using a clean towel or air dry them.
Any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out
