Support during a health struggle

Jerry was diagnosed with cancer and unable to work, which meant his savings went to pay for his mortgage, car, and health care. This left no room for food in his budget, so he came to FHBB for help through our services. Jerry was impressed with the amount of nutritious food available, such as fish, vegetables, fruit, yogurt, oatmeal, beans, and soup, which he attributes to his success in “beating cancer.” Through conflicts with doctor appointments, he was grateful the staff provided time accommodation, allowing him to continue receiving services.​

Jerry expresses tremendous gratitude to the Breadbasket for helping him through a difficult time in his life and states, “I will do whatever it takes to help the Breadbasket as they helped me.”
