Dear Friends,

Thank very much for your help Golden Harvest end hunger in our community. Every dollar you send  is multiplied by a factor of seven by the Food Bank to feed family after family, in town after town throughout our region. As groceries get distributed, hunger really does end for that family. Maybe they’ll require longer-term assistance or maybe not. Yet a start has been made toward change for the better. Your support is truly making hunger end in literally thousands of lives every month.

As we look toward Thanksgiving, a whole day set aside by our Country for the purpose of acknowledging God as the Giver of all good gifts and the Sustainer of all things, I am truly grateful for all the ways that the Food Bank is being used to help the women and men, elderly and children who endure much painful hardship. You are a partner with our food donor companies, the business community, thousands of volunteers, churches and county governments in making this great domestic missionary work called Golden Harvest a vital network of food assistance.

May our loving God pour His richest blessings upon you for your generosity!

Dear Brother,

Please forgive me for interjecting this here, but I'm desperate. If I don't find a job soon, my daughter and I are going to be homeless. I have a college degree and many-many years of professional experience and... I've been getting turned down for jobs that only require a high-school diploma or GED! I've been told I'm over-qualified and I will not be hired because I'd quit as soon as I found a better job. This despite my vow to keep whatever job I'm given for at least a year! In this day-and-age, I guess no one believes that I'd keep my word. And who can blame them?

This economy and this situation are really bad: I put myself through college while working full-time/often over-time (through all but my final year) and I've worked hard all of my life. Now many of my friends are advising me to lie on my Resume and Job Applications. They want me to remove my education and my experience. I'm desperate, and yet, I can't bring myself to do that: besides, what would I tell people that I've been doing for the past 30 years? And how would I be able to make up such an employment history and then back it up with references? Perhaps, I'm just not smart enough because I just can't bring myself to do it. My mind refuses to think that way.

I'm writing you this message, here, and now, because I've just spent the last several hours searching google and reading about you and your life and I believe you will understand and sympathize with me.

I am educated and I have many professional skills. I'm sane, stable, trustworthy, loyal, dependable and very strong: I'm in perfect health. I have a lot to offer...and...believe me when I say, I'll take and keep any job with Golden Harvest that's available and work as often and whenever you need me to - with only one exception - and that being that I am able to keep my commitment to God and Church. I am talking about my attendance on Holy Days of Obligation and on Monday nights from 7:30-9pm. So... can you help me? Will you do what you can to help me? Please.

Whatever you do or don't do in response to this personal plea. God Bless You for Everything that you've already done and are still doing.
