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.

I don’t know what I would do without your help. I don’t work, and am grateful for the food for my son, and diapers and formula for my baby. Every time I’ve called it has been because I was really in need.

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!

I don’t have to depend on neighbors for help in getting to doctors who keep me in good health. Your drivers are so dependable and helpful to me.

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!
