Sometimes I will bring food from Gaithersburg HELP, and then I go to the store and see how much I saved on food. It is a blessing to have this help – I am happy. I am proud that there are people in the world who help others like Gaithersburg HELP.
I thank God that I have touched your hearts to help us. I use everything you give me and it helps me save some money for rent. I live on $150 each week.
The food assistance is important because I am earning so little that I can only just afford to pay the rent. I am very appreciative and God bless you all!
I babysit two children normally and because there is no school and they have not been coming. I have been totally dependent on your food pantry resources. The mother of the children has helped me a little but even she has not been able to work on a normal basis. I am grateful for what I receive from HELP!
It helps me save some money to pay the rent to keep a roof over our heads. Thank you so much for the help you give. God bless!
I just wanted to say thank you for all your help.We received a number of your packages here at our house. I’m mostly recovered from COVID. I tested negative and just have a little cough. I no longer need the food help, but I really appreciate everything you were able to do for me and for my daughter, who is doing really well. I can’t thank you guys enough and I really am appreciative.
For me, it’s the best pantry I’ve ever visited and they give you good stuff! They are so organized. They are also very pleasant.
