I got a most compelling e-mail from a complete stranger. It wasn’t spam, nor bacn. It came from a man who was instrumental in helping me and Kyera get out of a temporary financial set back last June.
To make a long story short, money I was expecting to cover the deposit on our apartment didn’t come and I had absolutely no one to turn to for help. (It’s been one of my toughest realities since resuming my life back here in the US; tougher still because whereas before I was an only child being raised by a widow, now I am here, single parent, raising an only child.)
I heard about Modest Needs at work, crossed my fingers, and visited their website – http://www.modestneeds.org. Their mission in a nutshell: to help normally self-sufficient individuals get back on their feet.
