OUR VIEW: The Fortunate Among Us Can Make A Difference

A lot of us who live in Greene County have worked continuously at our jobs throughout the pandemic. Many or our fellow residents, however, have seen their places of employment shut down or they’ve been laid off. If you are part of the first group, we’re sure you are thankful. And we’d like to offer a proposal that will help that second group, help for which we’re sure they’d be grateful. Congress on Monday passed a COVID-19 relief package that will extend supplemental federal unemployment benefits of $300 per week to those who have not been able to keep their jobs. Though half of what the federal government approved for the jobless earlier this year, the new benefit will surely be a godsend. Still it probably won’t bridge the difference between needs and resources for a great many.

Need For Food Assistance Growing, Relief Agencies Say

Long lines at food distribution sites locally testify to a growing need as the coronavirus pandemic continues. Food and assistance with electric bills are the two greatest needs people have who are currently seeking help at the Greeneville-Greene County Community Ministries, its Executive Director Carmen Ricker says. “The need is out there, and in Greene County, it is more than people may realize,” Ricker said. “People are just out of food, that is what they have been telling us.” Second Harvest Food Bank of Northeast Tennessee, which provides food to local agencies, is also seeing increased demand in its direct distribution efforts in Greene County and the region. Since October, there has been a 23% increase in the number of people coming to the agency for food, Executive Director Rhonda Chafin said.
