When I told her I had a turkey for her, she said, 'Huh? Are you serious? Hold on a minute.' A few seconds later, she returned to the phone and repeated, 'Are you serious?', her voice trembling. 'Yes,' I responded. 'Would you like it delivered?' She said, 'Oh my God,' and began crying. This moment emphasized the profound impact that assistance can have on individuals facing hardship.
About an hour later, I visited the walk-in freezer behind the school, grabbed one cold, unnaturally large turkey from a stack of boxes... I made a note to check into regular food deliveries from a local service. This illustrates the importance of looking beyond immediate needs and creating sustainable support systems for those in need.
