Testimonial

This person has left the following thank you note:

I need to first, truly, say thank you to all of you who have been so generous as to help my family during these troubling times. We have been struggling to make ends meet as it is, and then the Covid-19 pandemic came to make surviving the most daunting task we've ever faced. My prayers are that you all are, and will be remaining safe throughout this all; and, no matter what has and will come, we will all continue to stand strong. For an update: my son and his wife have had their daughter (born March 25th, 2020) making the household five now, and she is both very healthy and well. My heart feels so blessed by your kindness. Moving forward, we intend to help our new neighbors throughout this with whatever we may have to give. We've been knocked down (financially), but with your generous hearts, we can and will stand once again. Thank you so much, and God bless you all Dorothy A. Horton



Marine Corps Veteran Needs Assistance with Car Payment

My Story:

I am a medically retired woman living with my son who is an undergraduate student at U.C.F. studying Aerospace Engineering. He is also a veteran of the United States Marine Corps, where he served three years as a Field Artillery Cannoneer.

We don�t have any funds for emergencies and when our rent got raised last year we had to move. Moving expenses were high and that put us in a financial bind. Our car requires serious repairs and it is our only means of transportation. We have one one else to turn to for help. We need Modest Needs assistance to pay for this car bill so we can get back safe in our car.

In the long-term, this funding will help us so that we should never return to such a place as what we have been in this last year. It will allow us to use our car and safely go to work and doctors appointments. Once our situation is good, would like to assist in making sure no other family ever has to go through something like this again. Thank you.
