My family had a great expierence with mary! We were having a very hard time and moving place to place. Sometimes we were in our car with the kids and other times we were in a tent. We went to a free clothing give away we saw advertised on facebook we met Mary and in getting clothing we talked to he rabout our situation. She helped us get food brought it to us and after a month she told us there was a RV donated to her. She helped us get into a trailer park and helped me get a home based job. We are currently still in the RV that mary placed us into and we are saving to get into our own house! We could not be more greatful weekly MAry checks in and still helps with some of the things that we need help with.
