Cousins Share Gratitude for You

This holiday season, Dorothy and her cousin, Carrie, are giving thanks for friends like you who are helping keep healthy food on the table for their families.  

 

We met the cousins at the mobile pantry at Legacy of Church of God, a Wichita Falls Area Food Bank Agency Partner where the two typically visit together to pick up food. 

 

Dorothy and her husband are proud parents of a young son, Andy. To provide for her family, Dorothy works at a local restaurant. Her husband receives Social Security disability assistance but is unable to work.  

 

Thankfully, the family receives some SNAP benefits to help fill in the gaps, but it’s still not enough right now even with Dorothy’s income.  

 

Carrie also receives Social Security disability assistance, while her husband works in retail. But the their combined income is often not enough to keep up with the cost of food for their two growing children.  

 

Both women are grateful to be able to visit the food pantry to pick up healthy groceries for their families. Dorothy says she doesn’t know what she would do without this resource.  

 

“Thank you very much for helping,” Dorothy says to donors like you.  

 

We are grateful for the way you restore hope to neighbors like Carrie and Dorothy this holiday season and all year long. You are truly making a difference.

Geometry Dash is an intense rhythm-driven game where precision matters. Every level pushes players to master timing and control.

Reading this left me with a heavy heart, a quiet sadness for the profound loss and the enduring questions that must linger. The emotional weight of such an event is truly difficult to bear. For a needed break, many turn to platforms like Hot Games for free online games.

Everything, from the subtle thuds of falling things to the thunderous booms of detonations, is supposed to be melon sandbox striking the floor or props clattering against each other give it a sense of life.

This story really highlights how important food assistance programs are, especially for families balancing work, disability, and rising costs. Dorothy and Carrie’s gratitude is inspiring — it reminds me to be thankful for what I have and to give back when I can. It’s kind of like Geometry Dash in real life: teamwork, persistence, and timing help you overcome the hardest obstacles.

What makes poor bunny game stand out is its simplicity. There are no complicated controls or long tutorials — just move, jump, and dodge. Every mistake is your fault, but every victory feels earned. It captures the essence of old-school arcade fun, where skill and quick thinking are all that matter.
