    The Monterey-Salinas Transit (MST) donated two minibuses to Clinica de Salud del Valle de Salinas (CSVS), which will support efforts by the clinic and the Grower-Shipper Association of Central California to provide additional services.

    These services include the ability to conduct COVID-19 field testing, and other resources to agriculture workers in the Salinas Valley and throughout Monterey County.

    “At the Grower-Shipper Association of Central California, we continue to foster innovative partnerships to support the needs of agriculture employers and employees throughout the region,” said association President Christopher Valadez. “MST reached out asking to help and collaborating with CSVS was a logical connection. This is a win-win for all organizations involved.”

    “CSVS is thankful to receive two retired minibuses from MST.  We can use these vehicles as we expand our abilities to provide medical services to Monterey County’s essential agriculture workers,” said CSVS CEO Dr. Maximiliano Cuevas.

    MST General Manager/CEO Carl Sedoryk added, “MST is proud to join with CSVS and the Grower-Shipper Association of Central California as we work together to strengthen the community we serve and make Monterey County a healthier place to live and work.”
