After a day of delivering shopping for and hampers with @merylyyc, I was dropping my daughter off at her dads for the week when I first got a call from a single mom that needed help.

Picture below is a truck full of hampers!

I answered the phone and explained the steps this person on the phone needed to do to apply for assistance. She told me she would head to the site right away.....and she did.

So this 🚨Emergency🚨 came in tonight. (See photo of email).

I immediately contacted her and asked her what she immediately needed. She explained that she needed to get out of the room she is sharing with her children & into a basement suite

She then said she wanted a meal or two so she could eat like a family with her kids for Christmas.

She asked if it was not too much trouble if we would give her kids (not her) something for Christmas. She was adamant that she get nothing because she didn’t think she was a good mom considering their circumstances. But if her kids could get something she would be very grateful.

I asked her if she could hold on for a moment while I grab some paper and a pen.

I went & grabbed the items when I heard a child in the background ask for a snack.

The mom started crying because she was trying to stretch the snacks & make them last.

I told her it would be ok.
