I am a senior and have been working for 35 years... I now collect unemployment, my only source of income, which is $270.00 a week. That certainly does not stretch far with mortgage, property taxes, utilities, etc. etc. You have really helped me by giving me food. I am not used to taking donations, I am used to being independent and relying on myself only. But I swallowed my pride, and came into you, and you are all so very nice and helpful, and do not "look down" on someone who has run into an unfortunate situation and needs help. Hopefully I will find a job soon and be able to help you back.
