In partnership with Sullivan Allies Leading Together (SALT), area school districts, the County’s Emergency Community Assistance Center, and others, Colavito and Bosket have been sweeping the county in the CCE Sullivan County Fresh Market-on-the-Move van, delivering much-needed food, hygiene products and hope to thousands of people every week.
In doing so, they’ve met and heard the stories of how Sullivan County residents are coping with social distancing and the realities of COVID-19. “One fellow we met was sleeping on the floor of his friend’s house… because he wants to make sure his friend, who is a 73-year-old veteran, is cared for,” said Colavito. “While delivering produce to these folks, we were asked how much money we need for gas. It reminds me that the little things we do for each-other often become the big part of a collective solution that results in compassion.”
