We wanted to take this opportunity to thank the community for supporting Loaves & Fishes throughout the years. With your assistance, we have come a long way from our humble beginnings in St. Raphael Catholic Church’s basement closet. As the need in our community increased, so have our services that now focus on nutritious, high-quality foods, preventative care, educational opportunities and wellness services. We are honored to share this note of gratitude from Karen, a former client:
It is hard to ask for help. I started working when I was twelve years old. I have been an independent woman who supports myself. I have run into tough times the last four years with personal problems. Life has been challenging for a while.
I have great news, though! After applying for a few jobs with my new resume and cover letter, I got an interview and a job! I was trying months with my old resume with no results. Your help with my resume, cover letter, and interview tips was amazing. I remembered your words not to be nervous during the interview. I smiled a lot, and I was calmer because of the wisdom you shared.
Loaves & Fishes also kept me well-nourished with healthy foods during the difficult time after my Father’s death. I am so incredibly grateful for all your fabulous programs. I also had my taxes done at your organization, and I needed that money so badly for rent.
Every single time I visited your organization, I was treated with such respect and dignity by everyone there. It was amazing. You provided a safe place to go during hard times. I always felt so welcomed and valued as a person.
Keep up the excellent work!
With all my gratitude, Karen
Thank you, from the Loaves & Fishes Family.
