What Seth Kaiser Dctp does

The Living Well Mission (also referred to as "The Well") is a community nonprofit organization headquartered at 121 E Elm Street, Penn Yan, New York, that provides free food assistance, hygiene supplies, youth programming, and social-service navigation to Yates County residents with no income requirements. The organization was founded in October 2013 by Pastor Sandi Perl and several volunteers as an outreach ministry of Penn Yan United Methodist Church, following the Red Cross closure in Yates County, and was formalized with a Board of Directors elected in July 2014.

The service portfolio is operated entirely in person and consists of a Food Pantry (perishable and non-perishable items), Grab N' Go Meals distributed off-site on a fixed weekly schedule, a Needs N' Things Pantry for hygiene, cleaning, and baby supplies, Sidewalk Distribution for outdoor access, the Imagination Station program for 3-5 year olds focused on literacy and developmental play, Share the Game (donated sporting equipment for student athletes), Pet Partner Connections (monthly pet food and supplies), Health Insurance Navigation, HEAP/SNAP Application Assistance, and Community Advocacy appointments. Distribution occurs both directly at the Penn Yan site and through a partner network that includes Hope Center Keuka Food Pantry, Penn Yan United Methodist Church Community Cafe, Friendship House, Dundee Baptist Church, and Branchport United Methodist Church.

The organization is staffed by three named employees — Allie (Executive Director and Associate Director of Development & Communication), Amber (Executive Director and Community Educator), and Haily (Social Care Network Coordinator) — supported by a broader volunteer base and a Board composed of pastors, mental health professionals, business owners, and community members. Revenue is generated entirely through donations (monetary and in-kind), processed online via qgiv and managed through Bloomerang CRM; there is no fee-for-service revenue, no pricing model, and no contracts. Outreach is conducted through a website (thelivingwellmission.org), Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, and a Substack newsletter. The organization was identified as the go-to community response entity following the 2014 Penn Yan flood, an event that cemented its standing in Yates County. There are no AI/ML components, no proprietary software products, and no technology platform beyond a standard marketing website.
