Salena is a single mom in our community who simply can’t catch a break.
Over the years, it’s been difficult for her to juggle caring for her five children and keeping a job. One of her boys has a heart condition, and she can’t leave him alone.
That means she can’t keep up with the bills she faces, and putting enough food on the table for her children is a challenge. And now, because of a dangerous domestic situation, the family is living in a hotel until they can find a place of their own.
“It’s very difficult to even try to support my children right now,” Salena says.
But because of your love and generosity, you’re helping relieve Salena of the overwhelming burden she’s facing this Thanksgiving. Instead of worrying about where their next meal will come from, Salena is excited that she and her kids will have food to make a Thanksgiving dinner together.
“I was trying to figure out a way to still take care of the holidays, and this really helped,” Salena says. “We know what it’s like to be in a hard situation, but this is the first time for me. So, thank you so much for helping the people that need it. And God bless everybody.”
