How One Woman Found Hope and Healing at JFCS

“JFCS has not only put fresh food on our table but also helped with school supplies when I felt completely overwhelmed by the prices. We are on SNAP, but with the high cost of living these days, it is often not enough.

Without JFCS, I would sometimes have to choose less nutritious foods just to fill our bellies. My boys are growing, and they eat a lot.

 Thanks to JFCS, fresh fruits and vegetables have become part of our meals. I often make curry rice with the rice and veggies I get, and recently, with a huge zucchini from the pantry, we made zucchini fries. The boys absolutely loved them!

I am deeply grateful not just for the food and supplies, but for the genuinely kind people at JFCS. Growing up in an Asian household, I was taught to be embarrassed to ask for help. It wasn’t easy to reach out, but I realized pride means nothing if my boys aren’t eating well. Every visit to JFCS is a pleasure. Everyone greets me with huge smiles and is always willing to help in any way they can. I often tell them that they are angels sent from above.

Thank you, JFCS, for your warmth, your love, and your support. The help I have received is more than just food and supplies. It is hope.

- Adrienne, Mother of Two
