December 2020
Our December family is our first Grandma. Grandma Jennifer was in the shelter when her two grandsons (ages 3 & 6) were brought to her, for full custody. A two bedroom apartment was family for this family of three and we collected 4 full car loads of donations to make this family feel comfortable and secure in the months to come. Five of us moved this family in -unpacked/washed/put away, curtain rods/coat hooks/shower curtains hung, and every piece of recycling & garbage tossed, within two hours.
“Thank you for everything! Jennifer couldn’t get over the generosity, the kindness and assistance. You guys are rock stars and are truly appreciated! Much gratitude on behalf of Jennifer and Interim Place!” November 30, 2020
“Thank you so much. Merry Christmas to all of you. I cannot tell you how grateful I am for you. I thank God for you and your program everyday. I cannot believe the blessings”.️
"I posted about a family in need to our members.
32 hours later the items in the pictures below were dropped to the family, creating a Christmas experience for them + improved their overall situation.
This family literally had 3 (plastic) forks that they reuse every meal.
I have pictures of almost everything (missing the tree & ornaments, a dinner voucher and a Christmas dinner delivery). Every dollar that wasn't spent on the tree & ornaments was gifted to this family in grocery cards.
