This holiday season, Dorothy and her cousin, Carrie, are giving thanks for friends like you who are helping keep healthy food on the table for their families.
We met the cousins at the mobile pantry at Legacy of Church of God, a Wichita Falls Area Food Bank Agency Partner where the two typically visit together to pick up food.
Dorothy and her husband are proud parents of a young son, Andy. To provide for her family, Dorothy works at a local restaurant. Her husband receives Social Security disability assistance but is unable to work.
Thankfully, the family receives some SNAP benefits to help fill in the gaps, but it’s still not enough right now even with Dorothy’s income.
Carrie also receives Social Security disability assistance, while her husband works in retail. But the their combined income is often not enough to keep up with the cost of food for their two growing children.
Both women are grateful to be able to visit the food pantry to pick up healthy groceries for their families. Dorothy says she doesn’t know what she would do without this resource.
“Thank you very much for helping,” Dorothy says to donors like you.
We are grateful for the way you restore hope to neighbors like Carrie and Dorothy this holiday season and all year long. You are truly making a difference.
