Hi! My name is Sandy and I coud use a little bit of help.

This past Friday our little community lost power. The power was out for 36 hrs. When the power came back on, I had to throw out all of my food in my freezer and refrigerator. Sheriff deputies brought me hambugers and water, but now I need to go grocery shopping. I am elderly and live on social security. I can only afford one trip to the grocery store per month.....and my next check will not be here until the end of the first week in September. I would appreciate it if you have a few dollars to spare so I could buy groceries.

My GoFundMe account is: https://www.gofundme.com/to-buy-groceries


If you can donate any money, I thank you from the bottom of my heart!
