The food bank is very important now. With all the prices going up and I’m not able to work right now, it’s hard. But by the grace of God, I make it through. These people are just a blessing. They make sure everyone has something.

Sometimes you just don’t have enough money to buy groceries. When you’re on a fixed income, no matter how much or how little, it always means a lot when you get something that can help you have a balanced meal.

One day my mom couldn’t go to the pantry, and so she asked if I could go in her place to pick up the food. I got there early and was amazed at the line. While I was sitting in my car, one of the older volunteers noticed that I was young and asked if I could help them prepare and distribute the boxes. I said ‘yes’.

I had grandchildren living with me at the time and we came over and received a box of food and everything. When I came in, there weren’t too many people working, so I decided that I wanted to give something back. So, I started volunteering to help others.

Like myself, people are grateful. I hear people saying, ‘I don’t know what I’d do had it not been for the food pantry’ or ask, ‘where would I get food to help my children.?’ A lot of people are really grateful.

The Food Bank is really a blessing. They are helping the poor, and they are helping the needy. I think that’s really good that people got a heart.

I pay all my bills. Then I have to put up so much a month for property tax, for flood insurance, and stuff like that and so the social security I get dwindles. There’s a lot of time I don’t turn on my heat because I know I can’t pay a big old bill. It’s just me. I don’t cook a whole lot anymore because of the price of groceries. I used to buy a pack of bacon for $9 and now it’s almost $20. On $31 of food stamps, I can’t do that. So, I depend on the Food Bank a lot.

If I didn’t have the Food Bank, life would be very difficult. I don’t think people realize how easy it is to struggle from just one event. You can have it one minute and the next minute, you don’t.

At first, I was embarrassed, but then I realized everyone is like this right now with the impact of the pandemic and economy. I never would have expected something like this to happen to us. I am 57 years old taking care of our 7-year-old granddaughter. I’m very thankful for the food pantry.
