Hunger in Our Region Sherri is a caregiver through and through. She spent the better part of the last few years taking care of her mother-in-law, who had Alzheimer’s, and then her own mom after she was diagnosed as well.
As much as she loves taking care of others, her biggest joy comes from her grandsons, ages 10 and 5. She loves to cook for them … and for her entire family.
Sherri and her husband have been married for 42 years, and they’ve worked together to raise their family and build their life. They are currently unable to work due to disability, and Sherri says the fresh food she can get from The Market really helps out.
“I like being able to come here and get all the vegetables that you have,” she says. “But I
like everything!”
She and her sister come to The Market together twice a month and get what they need to stretch their limited budgets. As costs continue to rise and federal support shrinks, this is becoming more of a lifeline than ever.
“It’s a big help, a real big help,” she says.
Thank you for your generous support. Your kindness makes a difference for seniors like Sherri!
