Testimonial

This person has left the following thank you note:

User-submitted image -  Click to see real sizeI just want to take a moment to let each and everyone of you who donated to help my family and I at this time of need for us, thank you very much. If it wasn't for each and everyone of you my family would not be able to shower, eat, and etc. This has showed me that my generosity and all I do for others isn't unnoticed as I have ran upon hard times from my accident and now with the help of all of you I know my family will not go without. From the bottom of my heart I really appreciate y'alls generosity.



A Stranger Injured Me On The Run and Made Me Miss Work. Please Help With My Water Bill

My Story:

I am a single mother of three boys. We love spending family time together playing board games or going out to eat and to see a movie. I work as a waitress full time and am in college pursing my Bachelor's in Business Management.

Recently, I was at a gas station when someone ran through the store and knocked me down. I was out of work for a while and fell behind on bills. I was badly injured and may need surgery. But I went back to work against my doctor's advice because of the financial bind I'm in. I need help paying for my water bill. If I don't get caught up soon my family will have no water.

Now that I am back at work, if I can just catch up I know we will be okay. I make enough to stay current, but getting caught up feels impossible. Thank you for your help.
