As this family called to ask for assistance, it was almost as if it was meant to be that we connected.  The mother of 3, working so hard to support her family alone, was doing so until her second son became ill with a mysterious illness, requiring that both her chronically ill son, and her youngest son, be hospitalized at the same time. 

This was an exciting project for one of our staff members, Lauren.  The sibling of a heart transplant patient was going off to college.  The family has experienced so many traumas in a small period of time, that paying attention, let alone money, to the details needed to move a young girl into her college dorm was difficult to say the least!
