Please support our Milford United Way
Today’s “Making Connections – Filling Gaps” focuses on CONNECTIONS.
Sam came to see us after being homeless for many months. As he was trying to make the right connections to improve his situation, his cell phone broke. Given his dire circumstances, having an operating phone was crucial for him to be able to apply for services, appointments, and other programs available to him.
Through our CONNECTIONS, we were able to arrange for a new phone for him and have it delivered to a secure address for him to retrieve it. Total cost to us: $80. FOR MOST OF US, THIS MIGHT SEEM LIKE A SMALL THING – BUT FOR SAM – IT WAS A LIFELINE.
Thanks to the generosity of our donors, the Milford United Way was able to make it happen.
We stand ready to continue to help the people of Milford.
