I just want to thank you in advance for the help that you are giving me. I am a disabled woman with a new amputation of my left leg due to a diabetic ulcer. I have not worked since 2008 and my husband walked out on me and my daughter, leaving us to pay ALL the bills on our own with ONLY my disability check.

Then my ONLY transportation broke down and I had to pay to have it repaired so that I could get to my doctor appointments, which is over 120 miles round trip. THANK YOU AGAIN SO MUCH.

Testimonial

This person has left the following thank you note:

I would like to take this time to 'Thank' each and everyone who made a contribution so that Modest Needs could help me out. The past 3 yrs. have really been tuff for me...Nov. 2007 I was taken out of work due to an ulcer on my left foot, Nov. 2008 I lost my job (due to the ulcer), my husband walked out Sept. 2008 and July 2009 I lost my left foot. I am able at this time to draw disability but that only goes so far. Ever heard the saying 'robbing Peter to pay Paul'?, well that's what I've been doing for the past 2 yrs. It's been hard but I've continued to keep my faith (in God)...for he has laid upon your heart--the kindness the help me out. I truly am Thankful from the bottom of my heart. May God Bless each of you and your families. Again 'THANK-YOU' so much for your kindness.
