Review for Inter-Faith Council for Social Service, Carrboro, NC, USA
Years ago, after surviving a horrible domestic violence situation, losing everything, then falling into a downward spiral, I came to chapel hill to get on my feet again After such tragedies in life, i found myself doing things I NEVER could have imagined, went thru a Christian rehab treatment and then moved from there to an Oxford house in Chapel Hill. It was very difficult to fall such a long way in life. It nearly broke me, drove me almost to the point I wanted to die. When I started to rebuild my life and came to Chapel Hill and found a place at an Oxford house, I did not even own a blanket. No sheets, no food is provided. Thankfully IFC was there. I was given a blanket, and a box of food. I went back one more time for another box before I was thankfully able to secure a part time job in the area. IFC was a real blessing to me when I was trying to rebuild. Today I have my children, a nice home, a good income and working towards my RN. I will never forget how much that simple blanket meant to me. It gave me hope, They gave me food to survive when I had no other way to get fed. Thank You from the bottom of my heart, Because of this great charity I now give back to my community, a viable member of society that I had been broken off of.
