Client Story

In July, GRACE was visited by a young mother who was trying to start over. Fleeing domestic violence had left her displaced, exhausted, and at her wits end trying to find stability. 

GRACE provided her with access to the food pantry, clothing for her 3 children, and backpacks for each of them filled with all the supplies needed for the school year ahead. In spite of the many unknowns, this mother could find hope knowing that the needs of her children were met and see the joy on their faces when they got to choose backpacks with their favorite characters/colors.
