We would like to say thank you to the Sky Valley Food Bank.
You are such an inspiration to us with your continual loving service. You are the difference we need, the lift of support. We feel grateful! We have been coming to the food bank for three years now. The first year, my husband had lost his job. The last two years we have been working, however, we have been under-employed. Recently, my husband was offered a great job. Of course we were very excited. He worked eight days when they decided he didn’t have enough qualifications. He had given up a job to take this new one. Now he is seeking work again. I work part-time and take care of my 97-year-old grandfather. We will be collecting unemployment benefits, which we hope will cover our mortgage. My part-time job covers the bills. We applied for food stamps and qualify for $25 per week. We definitely need your services to keep food on our table. Our children are good eaters, especially our 14-year-old son. Your service has also kept us out of debt.
My neighbor, a very hard-working lady, had a stroke. She had to hire an around-the-clock caregiver. This put her in need of the food bank. Every day she strives to regain her independence. She is very grateful for the assistance you give her. As we work to better our situations, know that we are most thankful for your many hours of service, which keep us afloat.
