Thanks to shul member Beth Brittman, The Shofar has learned that Suffolk County is offering free masks to all county residents over 60 years of age. Here’s how to get yours:

  • Dial 311
  • Listen to all the options for 311 services, and

wait for an agent to answer the call.

  • As for a free mask for you and/or your spouse.
  • Provide your name, mailing address, and the

year you were born.

That’s all there is to it.

[Just to be sure, The Shofar editor tried it. It works. I have my free mask, thanks to Suffolk County.]
