Due to Tammy’s extended stay at The Citadel, her monthly SSI benefits have been reduced to $30. The rest of her check is now going to the facility, and there’s also a chance she will be forced to repay last month’s disability payment, too.
Wellington would like to pay Tammy’s rent for two months so that she still has an apartment to return to when she can confidently live on her own again. We’ll need a little over $1000 to make that happen.
(If she’s not able to return home in two months, we’ll be asking for volunteers to help pack up her beloved home!)
If you’d like to contribute to this offering, please click on the button below, or mail a check to the church office with “Benevolence – Tammy” in the memo line. Thanks in advance for your generosity!
You’ve got a week to finish reading!
