UPDATED August 19th, 2020

This list is a guide to services and organizations assisting individuals with issues of food insecurity. It encompasses the western part of Sullivan County NY and stretches into the area around Honesdale PA in Wayne County. It is by no means comprehensive, and is a work in progress.

During a time of profound uncertainty, so many people were asking how they could help. The list was started as a means to generate interest in donations and volunteerism. Because this crisis is fluid, with information changing frequently, it is crucial that the details remain relevant and accurate. If you feel that I have listed something incorrectly, by all means, do let me know. Or, if you are aware of a group, or individual, who is working to help this community, and you believe they should be included, please send me an email: [email protected].

Share widely with friends, acquaintances and with anyone else to whom it might be of interest. Remember, no amount of generosity is too small. Collectively, we can absolutely make a difference here. When we emerge from this, which we will, let’s promise to address seriously the issues of inequity and inequality in this place we call home.  

 

SULLIVAN & WAYNE COUNTY SERVICES

•••

SULLIVAN COUNTY COMMUNITY ASSISTANCE CENTER HOTLINE

Call: 845-807-0925  Mon-Fri 8am-5pm

In an effort to aid the most vulnerable populations affected by Covid-19, Sullivan County has opened an Emergency Community Assistance Center call line. 

“Our Public Health Services call line has been inundated with requests for help and information, and this new Assistance Center will ensure those who are unable to leave their homes can receive the assistance they need,” explained County Manager Joshua Potosek. “At the same time, the Center will field calls from those seeking to offer help and connect them with the right people and locations.”

Led by Community Resources Commissioner Laura Quigley – the center accepts calls at 845-807-0925.

Assistance will be prioritized to senior citizens, the physically disabled, and others unable to shop for food, medicine and other necessities.

Callers with health questions or other concerns should continue to dial Public Health Services’ hotline at 845-292-5910.

The Assistance Center operators will also welcome those who are seeking to offer time, money, goods or services to people and organizations in need.

 

ENGN & SALT

These folks have stepped in to fill a crucial void right now: non-perishable foods/meals and hygiene products being delivered to those in need in Sullivan County. 

SALT is a collaboration of community based organizations and health & human service agencies working together to identify gaps in services, improve communication between providers, and maximize resources to address the needs of our diverse communities.

ENGN & SALT, in partnership with area school districts, the County’s Emergency Community Assistance Center and others, are sweeping the county, delivering much needed food and hygiene products to more than 400 people each week. 

Strategic drop off spots in the County where individuals can leave donations are at The Miss Monticello Diner and at the Weigh Station/ENGN on Lower Main St. in Callicoon. They will be making daily pickups resulting in the distribution to needy (or forgotten members of the County).  They are also collaborating with the County by dropping items off to the County Emergency Preparedness folks to distribute as well.

Individuals or families in need of food or other resources can contact the Cornell Cooperative extension at 845-596-0075

Or email: [email protected]

Please consider making either a cash donation or a donation of food/hygiene products.

To make a donation online: http://engncntr.com

*They are getting some donated food from the generous women at The Callicoon Pantry, Early Bird Cookery, The Catskills Food Hub & others. 

 

FUND for A SINGLE BITE

The ongoing mission of A Single Bite is to empower young people to care about the food they eat and where it comes from. 

With schools closed due to the COVID-19 crisis, they have shifted their food-based mission to help feed local families at serious risk of hunger. 

A Single Bite is now delivering over 2500 family meals every week to our neighbors in every school district in Sullivan County. More families are requesting their assistance every day. Your support will help them deliver these meals each week at a cost of $8 per person.

Foster Supply is contributing all associated labor and overhead costs for as long as needed. Transportation is being provided by volunteers from the Rotary Clubs of Liberty, Monticello and Livingston Manor as well as the Tri-Valley Lion’s Club and the Fallsburg Lion’s Club. However, A Single Bite is looking for additional volunteers to help deliver food to families during the week over the summer holiday. Especially in this western part of the county. Typically on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.*** In an effort to support the local economies, Foster Supply is purchasing as much product as possible from producers in the area, many of whom are seeing as much as a 90% decrease in revenue due to this crisis. Foster Supply is working to do all they can to keep them from shutting down.

A Single Bite was founded by Sims Foster, along with his wife and partner Kirsten Harlow Foster, co-founders of Foster Supply Hospitality.

***If you are interested in volunteering to deliver meals to families, throughout the summertime – especially in this western part of the county, please email [email protected] or call 845-482-1030 Volunteers must have their own vehicle and preferably have a good knowledge of the area. All deliveries are contactless.

If you would be interested in partnering with them at your school or as a volunteer, please contact them.

OPERATION FEED: PHASE 2

The Rotary Clubs of Liberty and Monticello, as well as the Fallsburg Lion’s Club and A Single Bite have teamed up to provide dinners to up to 90 families with children in the Liberty, Monticello and Fallsburg areas who cannot provide for themselves.  Many of these families were already food insecure, and the COVID 19 pandemic and its devastating effect on society and our economy have magnified these problems.  The first delivery of food is scheduled for Friday, May 22, 2020 and, thereafter, they intend to deliver meals 2-3 times per week.  Each delivery will provide enough food for 2 days, with the Friday delivery providing enough food to last a family for the weekend.

THE CALLICOON THEATER

The Callicoon Theater was built in 1948 and is the oldest continually operated cinema in Sullivan County. It is not a not-for-profit,  so your donations are not tax deductible, but it lies at the heart of our community, and it would be truly sad to see it close for lack of funds.
