Small Story: |
By The Numbers: |

One of the many neediest cases that we had was for an older gentleman who needed help paying his rent. He explained to us that he had just been recently diagnosed with COPD and an enlarged heart. The gentleman then told us that he was mostly reliant on his Social Security check for his source of income, but his most recent check had been delayed. After his diagnosis he had to begin paying for a new inhaler prescription. This new expense combined with his Social Security check being delayed resulted in the man getting behind on his rent. However, through the neediest cases funds we were able to help the man get caught up on his rent! We are also happy to report that the drug company will be sending the inhaler to this gentleman for no cost from now on! This case is just one of the many ways that we are making an impact in Rhea County!
