Over the years, Humanities Foundation has heard from many ShelterNet recipients and partners expressing their gratitude for the assistance that the program provides. Below are just a few examples of the impact that the program has made in the community.
“Recently Humanities Foundation helped me through the toughest time of my life. I found myself without a job and proper childcare for my son. As a single mother facing eviction, I found myself hopeless. But with the help of Humanities Foundation, I was able to get back on my feet and stay in my home. Thank you.”
- Sharon
“Thank you very much for helping me get my electricity turned on. It is very hard to pay those added expenses when you are moving on your own for the first time and have very little income. My son and I thank you so very much.”
- Nowa
“I would like to thank you for the assistance you gave me towards my rent. I hope you realize how special you folks are. Had I not received this money, I would not have a home to live in. It is good to know that there are people who still trust enough to give a second chance.”
- Amy

“I am writing this letter to say thank you on behalf of the many people your agency has generously assisted, not only on my caseload but the caseloads of my fellow employees as well. You have always been professional and courteous when conversing with me about some of my clients’ woes and their special needs. I appreciate your promptness in returning all telephone calls and your willingness to assist others. Again, thank you not only for the monetary donations, but also for your time and consideration of others.”
