Review for St. Eugene de Mazenod Shelters, Sumter, SC, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been living in a homeless shelter for the past three months. I became homeless because my sister who was my "Representative Payee" with the social security office was not paying my bills but instead spending all of my check on herself and her friends. These folks became my new Representative Payee this past month and have been working toward getting me into my own apartment Today they wrote the check that paid my first months rent and I am so happy to be living like a normal person again and out of the shelter. The shelter was good, but there is no place like home!

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

that I was homeless and now because of their help I have a home and they are paying all of my bills with the SSI check that I receive each month, and giving me a weekly allowance for food and other items.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

They reached out to me, asked me what I needed the most and delivered completely on all of my requests.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

They are all honest and kind and really listen to what I am saying.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

Help everyone who is in need.
