Testimonial
This person has left the following thank you note:
I suspect people spend more time quoting Shakespeare and Voltaire than Margaret Cho, but something she said just popped into my head: 'Sometimes when we are generous in small, barely detectable ways it can change someone else's life forever.' That's not overstating: your generosity and kindness truly has changed changed lives, not just one but 18. 18 people who will continue to have food, assistance and love from the place they've grown to call home because I no longer have to worry about paying for heating bill. Thanks to you, I no longer have to worry about scaling back services long enough to pay this bill. Thanks to you, we can continue merrily along our way, caring for those others have thrown away. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. Kirsten
Shelter Needs Heat/Plumbing Repair
My Story:
We have a small non-profit personal care home that provides shelter, food, medication administration and general assistance to those who are unable to live on their own but are unable to afford traditional long-term care. We provide housing for up to 18 people (we are currently at capacity); some people have come to us homeless, all suffer from a wide range of physical or developmental disability.
In addition to a pin-hole leak in one of our pipes, we had 3 residents rooms without heat - not a good situation in Pennsylvania in January. The repair bill, although relatively small, was something for which we hadn't budgeted. Any help you can give would be deeply appreciated. Thank you so much for your consideration.
