I have been volunteering for Gaithersburg HELP since the 1970s because I am such a great believer in this wonderful organization. The all-volunteer group serves a huge and ongoing need in the area, for the large number of residents who need help with food, transportation, infant needs or referrals to other helping organizations. I mostly work in the Pantry, giving out food to families who need it and who are so appreciative of our efforts. Volunteering for HELP is a fantastic way to give back to the community.
Thank you so much for the food you provide to me and my family. I am not working and it is very difficult to make ends meet. I have a child with special needs and I take care of her. Thank you so much.
Being on social security disability and with a very low income, I had to decide whether to get food or get my medications. Thanks to you I no longer have to make that terrible decision. Thank you!
Since my nephew has a car now, we were very grateful for Gaithersburg rides to the doctors in the past 2018.
Gaithersburg HELP is an excellent organization. I am very grateful for what it does for the Gaithersburg community. We have been living here for over two years and you have helped us get stable with our needs. I hope that one day I can volunteer there and pay back some of the help I have received. Thank you!
