During this COVID-19 emergency, our community has people who need help. We also have people that want to help. Lakeville Cares is a place where the community can come together.

• Are you a senior or a person with a compromised immune system that needs your groceries or prescriptions delivered? We can help.
• Are you a person that wants to help by making masks for others to wear? You can help.
• Do you need masks? We can help you get them.
• Are you a business that has services? We can help connect you with those in need of your services.
