Editor's note: the following release was submitted by Brown County Sheriff John Merchant
The Brown County Sheriffs office is proud to join other Sheriffs across Kansas to provide needed services to our county residents during this difficult time.
We are very fortunate to have many friends and neighbors helping out those in need and it is very much appreciated.
In order to make sure no one falls through the cracks, our Sheriffs office will be helping senior citizens, special-needs and high risk residents by delivering needed medications and grocery items if an emergency arises.
People who need assistance and reside in Brown County can contact the sheriff's office at 785-742-7125 Monday-Friday 9-2. You must provide your name, date of birth, address and location the medication/medical supplies or groceries need retrieved from.
The items have to be retrieved from Brown County businesses and be delivered within Brown County.
I am asking that you only use this program if you truly have a need as our resources could be limited.
A big thank you to everyone who has been selflessly helping others, by working together we will get through this! Please call if you have any questions.
