Learn about Helping Hands of Potsdam on North Country Matters

Posted

POTSDAM — Tom Chappell, the Executive Director of Helping Hands of Potsdam, and Betty Connolly, a Helping Hands Board Member, are the guests on North Country Matters, the local public affairs video magazine.

They talk to NCM host Donna Seymour about the work this local not-for-profit does to address poverty and human service needs in St. Lawrence County.

Helping Hands offers a free lunch program, a food pantry, emergency firewood, transportation help and a furniture barn that offers help to anyone in the county. New this year is the addition of a cooling center at the Helping Hands facility located in Hannawa Falls.

The shows are filmed in the Fred W. Cleveland Computer Center at the Potsdam Library.
