READ TESTIMONIALS
When we make a grant at Modest Needs, we ask only one thing in return: we ask the person we've been able to help to write a short 'Thank You' note describing the impact of our donors' generosity on their lives and the lives of their families.
This page serves as an archive of all the 'Thank You' notes that Modest Needs' grant recipients have written over the years. We do not edit these testimonials. We think they speak for themselves.
