This is the first time that I’ve ever been in a Shelter. At first I must say that I was extremely afraid and nervous, but the staff and residents here have made this experience for me much easier. I’m thankful for this place and everyone here. I thank God everyday that I have a safe place to live.
I’ve been at the Shelter now for five days and four nights! So far, the employees have been AWESOME! They have given me all the right steps to get a job and help me with my paperwork to find a place to live. Everyone here is very respectful and helpful. I don’t know what I would have done without this place!
I want to tell you I am so very thankful for all of your services and for giving me this chance to better myself and grow in your Shelter. These past few months have been amazing. The love, care, and concern that you share towards everyone here is priceless and so genuine. I have so much love and respect for everyone here at the Shelter. I came here scared, hopeless, and lost. I’m leaving full of hope, lots of direction, and a confidence level that is through the roof! Thank you all so much for all you have done and continue to do. God bless and take care. All my love and many, many thanks,
