" The utility bills these past couple of months have spiraled out of control. Our bills are so disorganized now that we are battling back and forth with social security. I will not bore you with the details here. So frustrating! However, it’s comforting to know that there are people out there willing to help those struggling. Thank you for everything.."
"I can't begin to thank James and the EDL staff for all their hard work helping us. November and December were difficult with extra doctors to visit, copays, and a procedure of six injections in my lower back. Without a vehicle, we have to use the apartments weekly visit to the grocery store and it seems something always runs out in between.
The holidays were quiet, unable to have a large meal, I thank God for the husband I have, he lifts my spirit no matter what we are going through.
Thank you again EDL, staff and James for sending some light our way."
"Lately we have been seeking help from anywhere we can get it. Some places simply cannot help. Others have waitlists or their funds have run out. I know we cannot keep living off of my credit cards but options for us are very limited these days. Our debt keeps piling up each month. Living on a fixed income is not working for us anymore, something has got to change. However, at least for the near future, the resources and help provided by EDL have given us hope to make it through another couple of months."
"We need these funds for food and gas for my husband's medical appointments. He is completely disabled and we have no funds. He can no longer work and I am disabled also. Thank you EDL."
"Hello, I am on full Disability. I also take care of my 87yr old Mama who lives with me and U also have custody of and am raising my Grandson he's 11yrs old. This year has been very rough financially. Keeping up with Rent Utilities, Groceries etc. The money will be used to help catch up on some Utilities bills to keep them from turning anything off as we have gotten several disconnect notices. Thank you and I am so appreciative and Grateful
