What Our Neighbors Say

“I didn’t have much food at all…I would go for days at a time without eating.”
Patricia R., Food Bank client
We need food help, but we don’t even have the gas to get it. Thank you for directing me to a nearby place that we can go.
J. B.
I lost my job and we are now without food. I felt so lost. You are a God send.
Dan H.
We have no food. After the storm, we went four days without power. We had to throw everything away. There’s nothing left and we have no money.
