Step Three
Are you critically low on food, fuel, or have another
immediate short-term need?
Fuel
Windham Neighbors Helping Neighbors Network assists with one-time delivery of fuel. We have companies that will deliver to your home. If you need heating oil, we will ask for the location of your fill pipe. This is the same for KI and propane. If you use wood as your primary source of heat, we will supply Bio-Bricks after an inspection is completed by the Windham Fire Department. We can help facilitate this.
Food
One-time help for food supplies which are not covered by food stamps. Necessary items for example, diapers, laundry detergent, toilet paper. Also in an emergency if you are not able to get food from the Windham Food Pantry.
The process is as follows:
Once you have been approved by Neighbors for a food voucher for up to $50.00, you will receive the voucher either by meeting the Neighbor at Hannaford in North Windham or picking up the voucher which was left at the service desk for you. On occasion you might need a ride from the neighbor. You will shop on your own and give the voucher to the checkout person. Your sales slip and the voucher will be returned to the service desk and a bill will be sent to Neighbors.
Other Help
Windham Neighbors Helping Neighbors Network may be able to help in other ways. Examples are: transportation to doctors, shoveling of snow for the elderly, transportation to the food pantry, loan closet or meetings at the Windham office for General Assistance. Neighbors also works with Windham High School student volunteer program. |
