“E” apartment was completely bare. She had a comforter on the hardwood floor and a couple of pillows for both her and her daughter to sleep on. “E” works for an elder care home and is in school to finish her nursing license. She became homeless when her boyfriend abused her. Afraid for her life she went to Ruby’s Place to save money and find a place of her own. She was in a fragile state when we met her and was holding back tears when we described how we were going to help her and her daughter.
After finishing the first house, volunteers headed over to E’s place to make her house a home too!
The results were more than E expected! She was shocked when she walked in and saw her home full of furniture. There were tears in her eyes.
Thank you GG family, for not only providing beds, but couches, rugs, lamps, bedding, pots and pans, dressers, tables, chairs, televisions and more!!!
A special thank you to the GIVE Girls for providing many hours of hard work and care for these families.
And as always, we could do none of this without the gift of CHIPMAN RELOCATION AND LOGISTICS.
Our next gatherings are March 17 in Danville and March 24 in Lafayette. Learn more here.
With gratitude,
Donna and Chris
