We are currently working with an aunt who took over the care of her nephews. She is a wonderful individual who needs groceries to help feed the new children in her home. She is currently working and due to the daycare situation, she has missed some days of work. Which caused her to have less income this week. She needs help with groceries and baby wipes to help support her nephews through this week and some days next week, till her next paycheck. I am not requesting money, but grocery items & wipes. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for supporting me and always coming to our rescue. God bless you and I hope you have a great day.
