We are reaching out on behalf of a young woman in the Foster Youth in Transition (YIT) program and her boyfriend, who are both working hard to support themselves and others in need and are in need of food assistance. In addition to covering their own expenses, they are currently providing housing and care for her aunt, who has diabetes and is unable to work, as well as a 17-year-old boy who recently became homeless after his father was incarcerated. While they both work full-time and regularly utilize food banks, their limited income is stretched thin after paying rent and essential bills, leaving little to no money for groceries. This couple is doing everything they can to keep their household stable, but they are in urgent need of grocery assistance to continue supporting themselves and the two individuals depending on them. Any help with food support would be deeply appreciated.
