Thank you to all of our supporters in the past and to those that have made an early gift. This year for the first time ever, we have received 5 early gifts so far and almost 50% of those are first-time donors. We are very grateful and any amount makes a tremendous impact.
Fairoaks of Denton provides housing and service coordination to low-income seniors and Veterans. We are a non-profit and small business and receive funding from HUD. The funding is not enough to bridge the gap between our vulnerable seniors needs and resources. For example, many of our seniors have to go without proper nutrition due to the cost, making decisions between paying their electric bill and medical co-pays or taking care of their nutritional and wellness needs. Help us bridge this gap. A donation of $140 will provide whole grain products in our community pantry for availability to 40 seniors for a year. A monthly donation of $100 will provide protein options, fresh produce and whole grain products every month for up to 40 seniors. Our seniors suffer from food insecurity and many do not drive to be able to go shopping or to local food pantries (which usually does not meet their dietary needs).
