We accepted a family from Hebron Homeless Shelter in December. They told us
that the mom was so full of joy that they had no idea the obstacles she was
working so hard to overcome after losing much of what she had due to the mold
in their basement apartment. A 'if I won the lottery wish list!' was shared in the
VLC Newsletter on Dec. 3rd, and you shared every item requested by Dec. 12th!
A living room couch, chairs, tables, lamps, beds for the 2 daughters, comforters,
sheets, bookshelves, books, encyclopedias, pots and pans, slow cooker, coffee
pot, toaster, bake ware, towels, cleaning supplies, grocery gift cards, a washer
and dryer along with puzzles, games, a karaoke machine, sewing machine, dress
form, desk, computer and printer. Mom was in tears...YOUR generosity and your
compassion is incredible...searching for the items needed, contacting us and dropping them off in a weeks' time during the busiest month of the year. A Note from the Client:
I want to thank you sooo much for all that VLC did for me and for my family. My daughter loves her sewing machine and is working on her first few “designs” I hope she gets to them soon so I can post them for the world to see. We do a puzzle every night together as a family and my son has started reading the encyclopedias. He said he wants to be smart and know everything so he can answer all my questions. You have no idea what your organization has done for me. You have made my home a real home some place where it’s warm and safe. We had a truly wonderful Christmas. I really thank you so very much. I felt like it was a scene out of Extreme Home Make Over! From couches, tables and lamps to beds, from linens to towels, and dishes to pots and pans. Your organization is a blessing and God Bless each and every one of you! We will never forget you ever.
