All-Star Skyler's Family:
“Financially, it’s a burden. We have been worried about the cost of gas. Our gas costs as a family rocketed from about $50 per week to over $200. Because of the Orange Envelope, part of that burden was lifted. Now we had money to pay other bills. Pinky Swear was on the list of organizations that our social worker gave us. We are not ashamed to get the help because organizations are there to provide it. That’s what they do."
All-Star Bea's family:
"I had been thinking, I am not even working 20% and still we have this mortgage to pay. Then we got an email from Pinky Swear, they were going to pay the bank directly. It was so easy at a time when nothing felt easy. It helped us make it through the next month, we could pay off something else.”
All-Star Sage's family:
"We had been in the ER for hours, and I had no idea when I had last eaten. The snacks were a godsend. We will never forget how that made us feel, and we recognize the impact that it had on all of us during those initial dark days."
