The William. J Larkin Jr. Community Response Task Force Fund receives donations for the purpose of serving residents and businesses within the greater Hudson Valley area who are facing challenges that require assistance above and beyond the means and responsibility of traditional public and private institutions. Funds raised support efforts that may include, but are not limited to, emergency assistance caused by natural disasters, food and prescription medication purchase and delivery, temporary lodging, transportation needs and education initiatives. This fund also provides support, as needed, to local charitable organizations whose mission helps to protect and improve the quality-of-life of residents and businesses in the district.

*** In 2025 the Larkin Task Force is entering a new space assisting children and families with physical and developmental disabilities, specifically helping to purchase medical equipment that is not covered by insurance.  This life changing program has already begun changing the lives of countless New Yorkers ***
