“Thank Goodness This Is Here”

Published On: April 12th, 2022Categories: Post, Stories of Hunger

Holly had a good job as a manager at a fast-food restaurant. But the combination of her pregnancy and the pandemic forced her to cut back on her hours.

“Thankfully, I was able to work through the pandemic,” she says.

But after she had her daughter Ivy, now 6 months old, Holly didn’t go back to work full time because she now had three kids at home. Her husband works full time, but Holly says they’re still living paycheck to paycheck.

Because of their limited budget, Holly says that help from the pantry “really became a necessity at my house.” The food they get from the pantry enables them to make ends meet.

“Thank goodness this is here, and it helps us fill that gap until we get paid again,” Holly says. “It’s been a tremendous help.”
