Level Up Care Packages
These care packages are being distributed to recovery facilities and individuals in conjunction with local food pantries and sober living homes. The current facilities that are participating in the program are Renwick Recovery, Catholic Charities, Oxford Sober House men and women homes, Newburgh Food Pantry, NewburghArmory and New Directions Recovery.
We are distributing our second round of care packages, they are only available while supplies last. Each Facility is required to fill out a feedback form so that we can collect data for improvement. If your facility, food pantry or shelter is interested in receiving some of these care packages please reach out ASAP to info@seansdream.org
These bags were funded and made possible by OASAS grant funding and we will be forever grateful for their help in providing the means to get this program started.
Our first round of 100 care packages included the following items in each disposable bag:
Each bag is marked by size and is made to be unisex and each bag contains new underwear for men and women, so the needed pair can be used and the extra pair can be donated forward to the facility or individual.

These care packages are a symbol of support, hope and love from our mission driven organization to our hardworking community members in recovery. They chose to be brave enough to ask for help and now we GET TO choose to be strong enough to show them they are supported. The basics like clothing, hygiene and food are necessities to live and thrive, everyone deserves them. If we are able to help support someone with the basics in the beginning of starting over on a new path we are assisting them with being able to afford other things like; an uber to get to work, necessities for their children, paying rent and utilities. Addiction, clothing and food insecurity and any other path to recovery does not discriminate with who it can affect. We all know someone who has been affected by this, lets be a part of the solution as a community and start to make a difference.
You do not have to be great to start but you have to start to be great!! (-Zig Ziglar)
Lets all remember that we all have the same destination of success with different beautiful paths to get there. Please consider a donation to our organization today so that we can keep this program running. Your business or organization can sponsor care packages please email us to find out how!

Level Up Care Packages Round 1 Reviews:
Renwick Recovery says "These are very useful to have on hand for clients. The Pants, Shirts, Socks and Underwear is most useful for us. The care packages make the employees job easier because when new clients come in they usually have nothing. On an average per month we need 5-10 of these care packages. We would definitely recommend these to other facilities!"
New Directions Recovery Bon Secours Hospital says " These are very useful to have on hand for clients. The Pants, Shirts, Socks and Underwear is most useful for us. The care packages make the employees job easier because our patients have nothing, receiving anything can make their journey a little easier!! On an average per month we need 30-40 of these care packages. We would definitely recommend these to other facilities!" We think that these package's will improve the mental health and moral of the clients because going in to the next level of care with some items that are new just improves how they feel about themselves all the way around and should improve their chances of being successful.
Newburgh Food Pantry says "These are very useful to have on hand for individuals that come to the food pantry. The Hygiene Kit is most useful for us. The care packages make the volunteers job easier because everyone needs these items. On an average per month it would depend on what season it is and when they get their check. If we had to put a number to it we could say 3,000-3,500 individuals a month. We would definitely recommend these to other food pantries. We think that these package's will improve the mental health and moral of the individuals because they feel support. We would love to have inexpensive eye glasses in the care packages next time. We would be interested in being a part of the next round of distribution."
Catholic Charities says "These are very useful to have on hand for our clients. The pants, shirts, socks and underwear is most useful for us. The care packages make the employees job easier because It allows us to have guaranteed resources for last minute clients. On an average per month we use 10 of the care packages. We would definitely recommend these to other organizations. We think that these package's will improve the mental health and moral of the individuals because often times the clients are in coming in off the street and this will allow them to have clean clothes to put on. Also the clients that are being released from incarceration have clothing in their property that are out of season or the wrong size. We would love to have a bookbag/reusable bag to give the items in, deodorant, feminine products, sports bras, hair clips, multi end phone charger and block in the care packages next time. We would be interested in being a part of the next round of distribution."
Oxford House says "These are very useful to have on hand for our house members. The pants, shirts, socks and underwear is most useful for us. The care packages make the current house members situation easier because it allows us to have less challenges on intake with new house members. On an average per month we use 2-3 of the care packages. We would definitely recommend these to other organizations. We think that these package's will improve the mental health and moral of the individuals because it really takes a lot of the pressure off of the individual. We don't see anything else that needs to be added to the package's for next time. We would be interested in being a part of the next round of distribution."
