What Can $20 Buy?

May 20th, 2011

 

What can $20 buy?  $20 buys someone a ride on the bus to appointments almost seven times. $20 buys someone a box of disposable diapers. $20 gives someone a safety gate and outlet plugs to keep their toddler safe. $20 buys a can of formula that will last less than 3 days.

Twenty dollars can help buy some basic necessities that low-income families in our programs struggle to purchase. The families we serve make difficult decisions every day when it comes to "stretching" their dollar.  With your donation you will be helping low-income families meet basic needs that are often taken for granted.  The Family Services Programs strive to help families secure a healthy, safe and productive environment for the parents and their children.  One hundred percent of your donation will go directly to help the families in our programs.
