A Struggling Family Turns to CAC

Richard and Sara have had a difficult past 2 years. Sara, who has a chronic illness, spent 4 months in the hospital while pregnant, but they lost their baby girl. Richard then lost his job, and this year Sara has been in and out of the hospital upon which she lost her job. They have 2 young children and found themselves both unemployed and unable to pay the rent. Their only income is a small disability benefit. Then Richard found CAC. We helped him with rent so they could stay in their home, gave him food for his family, and enrolled the children in our Adopt-a-Family program for holiday gifts. He recently moved out of state to take a low paying job near a relative. He’s still looking for a job in the Atlanta-area in welding or fork lift driving. Sara is looking for a data entry or reception position.

Your generous donations allow CAC to help struggling families in our community like this one stay afloat and remain in their homes through difficult times.
