Your support provides critical nutrition for Miriera and her family .
“ Asking for help isn ’ t bad .”
Thank you for providing nutrition for this family of six
Keeping a family of six like Miriera ’ s fed can be pretty hard even under normal circumstances . However , after a year of rising food costs , the task can be overwhelming .
Like so many of our neighbors in North Texas , Miriera ’ s family has been through some tough times this past year .
“[ Inflation ] has affected all of us , especially our pockets ,” Miriera says . “ Now it ’ s either you buy this or that . Sometimes we have to make sacrifices .”
With a full household , Miriera says she is so grateful for the nutritious food friends like you provide through a local food pantry .
“ Asking for help isn ’ t bad ,” she explains . “ I come here . Then I ’ ll plan our meals for the week . The food doesn ’ t last too long in our family since there are six of us . It lasts about three days .”
Food isn ’ t the only assistance Miriera is grateful for . . .
“ There are a lot of great opportunities . I ’ ve been to two different healthy cooking classes , and I ’ ve really enjoyed them ,” Miriera says . “ They have a lot of programs for the community — a self-esteem class , a CPR class and a citizenship program , too .”
Miriera gets the nutrition her family needs even as she works to improve their situation .
Thank you for aiding Miriera with much-needed food , especially during challenging times . With your ongoing support , you ’ ll continue to provide nutritious food for families like Miriera ’ s during the holidays and beyond .
