Testimonial 2

“If it was not for the roof they provided for my family, we would have been sleeping in the streets. Carol and NRFS helped us with so many things throughout our stay. I am grateful that there are places that actually care about people. My family had a warm bed to sleep in, and I didn’t have to worry as much as I did before we were placed in the shelter. I want to thank everyone for all of their help.”
