“This help came at a crucial time, during which it has been not only hard to find gainful employment due to the pandemic and my ongoing [medical issues], but also because I took time off to be by my terminally ill mother’s side. She passed away one week ago, and having that financial aid helped me to keep my housing for at least a couple more months as I convalesce… I am so grateful to my community for helping me.”
