[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there anybody here that would be willing to help our family with groceries? I have three teenagers and my husband has a chronic and has been out of work for 4 months. We have been living week to week, our bank account is frequently overdrawn. Unfortunately our family is not able to help (we’ve helped my MIL even when we couldn’t afford it).

A gift card to a grocery store, I’m not asking for someone to send a random stranger cash. Food Lion, Walmart. Please? [/quote]

I’m sorry for your situation, pp. why not head to a food bank? [/quote]

I can’t stock up food from the food bank. And the one here in our county will only let you have three bags. I have been there. Several times over the past few months. And it’s really unfortunate because they only have non perishable stuff and one of my kids has Type 1 diabetes. It’s hard to eat healthy from a food bank. The soups and cereals and starchy stuff really hiked his blood sugar up, even though he active in sports at school. I wish food banks were able to offer healthier options. [/quote]
Can you post what area you’re in, so people can help recommend possible resources?[/quote]

I smell a scammer.[/quote]

I’m not a scammer. I wish I was. Find someone on DCUM that can vet me. I’m not a scammer. And I’m also not in DC.[/quote]

Your child should qualify for free food at school. If your bank account is frequently overdrawn, caronavirus isn’t going to change that. A gift card or some food won’t change that. This is a chronic problem you need to address. You should be seeking help in your local community. [/quote]
