Amal Shares Her Gratitude

When you support Harvesters’ hunger-relief efforts, you help make sure families like Amal’s can access the good nutrition they need to thrive.

Amal’s raising her two growing children on her own in Kansas. The kids are active and always hungry. A concerned mom, Amal always does her best to fill her kids’ plates with healthy, balanced meals. Unfortunately, the nutritious food she seeks is often outside of her limited budget.

Amal was excited to better provide for her family’s needs when she landed a part-time job. But when she started earning an income, she no longer qualified for the assistance she had been receiving. She said she had to choose between paying the rent and buying groceries every month. 

But because of your gifts, she no longer has to make that impossible choice. She can take home a variety of fruits, vegetables, and other staples from Jewish Family Services, which partners with Harvesters to provide groceries for neighbors like Amal.

She was so excited to fill her basket with fresh produce, dry goods and laundry detergent. It brings her peace of mind to know her family doesn’t have to sacrifice food to afford other expenses.

“It helps a lot!” Amal says of Jewish Family Services.

Thanks to you, Harvesters clients like Amal can better provide for their family’s needs. Please consider giving here.
