Following the devastating flooding in Woodhull, the Town Hall is being overwhelmed with donations.
The Steuben County Director of Public Safety, Tim Marshall, said that while the donations are well intended, what’s really needed are monetary donations and gift cards for the hardships people are facing.
Many people will need to replace water heaters, furnaces, and repair their houses.
The United Way of the Southern Tier is collecting money for their Steuben County Flood Response Fund which helps non-profit agencies assist flood victims.
Checks can be made out to UWST Steuben County FRF and mailed to:
United Way of the Southern Tier
P.O. Box 284
Elmira, NY 14902
Donations can be made to the Community Church of Woodhull.
