I am happy to announce that The Wayne Co Foundation and other donors have come together to provide some relief funds to help out residents in Jefferson Township that suffered damage and unforseen expenses related to the flood. Anyone wishing to apply must have reported the loss to Indiana 211 so I can cross-check applicants with the list. A photo ID and proof of residency, and receipts if you are requesting reimbursement. These funds are provided by generous donors through the Wayne County Foundation and are NOT Fema funds. The funds are limited, but my office will do its best to be fair and assist everyone we can.

Great work by our partners at NCCC

Yesterday evening, we were contacted about volunteers needing PPE to safely continue flood cleanup. Chris placed an order for the needed supplies, Krisann picked them up and brought them to the pantry, and Leslie got them into the hands of those working today.

Just one small example of how monetary donations allow us to quickly respond to needs as they come up. We’re grateful to everyone helping us continue supporting our community through recovery!

FSSA received approval to extend the deadline to request Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program replacement benefits for all 53 counties impacted by the Governor’s disaster emergency for the disaster event on Aug. 11. The deadline for all these counties is now Aug. 31, 2026.

Households that receive SNAP benefits who lost food due to storm damage or power outages may be eligible for replacement benefits. Affected individuals will need to submit an affidavit, available at on.in.gov/SNAP-Affidavit, for replacement benefits. The affidavit must be submitted by the above deadline and the loss (due to power outage, flood, etc.) must be verified.

The document may be uploaded to the FSSA Benefits Portal (https://fssabenefits.in.gov/bp/ #/), faxed to 888-436-9199 or dropped off at any Division of Family Resource’s office, found here: https://www.in.gov/fssa/dfr/ebt-hoosier-works-card/find-my-local-dfr-office/?fbclid=IwY2xjawT5eylwZG9mAWV4dG4DYWVtAjEwAGJyaWQRMTJNczF1NmdGMmd5NWFWNVVzcnRjBmFwcF9pZBAyMjIwMzkxNzg4MjAwODkyAAEeL47IEpzUhT7MTPwEkoVc3PCBOVDoN6urJpU9gO872z3jW0CKm1lQL46em_s_aem__9PfDOgoQ_mgJgUnvnfnmA.

Wayne County, here's a challenge! Pat and Paul Lingle have generously committed to a 1:1 match of donations to the Wayne County Cares Fund, up to $25,000. Whether you give $25, $100 or $1,000, your gift will be matched dollar for dollar until the $25,000 match is reached. Let's show our neighbors what Wayne County can do when we come together!

Donations can be made online, in person at the Foundation office, or by mail. If you would like to support a specific community, select “designated purpose” when donating and indicate the community you wish to support.
