Kim is a local senior citizen who lives alone here in Lapeer County. She has no remaining family in the local area, she has a very limited income, and was desperate for help.
She called Love INC on December 22nd just before we were closing for the Christmas holiday. I am so glad that I hadn't left yet. She was completely out of propane and the propane company refused to deliver any more until she could pay her back balance. We also had severe weather warnings that were set to last for 3 days, so she was legitimately worried about freezing to death over Christmas.
We were able to reach out to our local partners and get her back balance paid. Then we were able to utilize a couple grants we have from our generous partners and get her an emergency propane delivery.
She called us back after the holiday break just to say how immensely grateful she was to Love INC and to our Awesome God who is her help in times of trouble.
