HOST A DRIVE
Sarah conveyed that 24 years ago, with the help of ECHO, we helped provide food for her and her children. Since her last visit 24 years ago, Sarah and her family have been stable. She hadn’t needed help from a food pantry in 24 years!
It was the end of 2022, and Sarah once again needs food, all due to a medical crisis that had recently come up in her family. It was a crisis that made it difficult for her to buy food that week.
Because of YOU, ECHO was able to give her food that day and provide her with a list of additional food pantries in the area, along with resources for other programs that could assist her in the future.
