Your gift helps families just like Sara's
Meet Sara: she’s a single mom with two girls, and her mother Joyce, now retired, lives with them. Sara works the night shift as a manager at a local hotel, and until recently the family volunteered at their local food bank packing boxes of food for people in need.
But lately, with the rising cost of food and housing, Sara’s pay cheque isn’t stretching as far as it used to, and Joyce began working as a crossing guard to help support the family. Even with Sara’s teenaged daughter taking on a part time job as well, they still often come up short at the end of the month. Sara’s family has now turned to the food bank they once volunteered at for assistance during this difficult time.
I have come to count on the food and support I receive from our local food bank, for which I am very grateful. But I know it will only be temporary. I am not looking for a hand-out, but I do appreciate the hand-up.
Every month, families like Sara’s rely on the support they receive from the food bank, so they can have access to the fresh and nutritious meals they need. With the support of donors like you, we can make sure food bank shelves stay stocked together.
