The initiative comes as local residents stay home in an effort to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
According to a release from Brown County Sheriff John Merchant, the packages contain personal care and food items. They are limited to one per household.
Along with delivery, packages are also being made available for pickup at the Sheriff’s Office, located in Hiawatha.
Merchant said the packages are made possible through a partnership between his office and Weather Tech Renovations and BBCC Properties.
