Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing
This family is in need of a working refrigerator/freezer combination. Mother works full time, but does not drive, and has not been able to learn how to use public transportation. Mother walks to and from work, and will pick up items at the store on her way home. There are three children in the home under the age of five, and mother needs to be able to store food in the refrigerator and freezer to feed her children. Mother is limited on what food items she buys because of not having a working refrigerator or she will try to use everything she purchases, that same day. Unfortunately the family is unable to pay for this purchase, as they are working on repairing their hot water heater. By assisting this family, they would be able to plan mealtimes for the children more cost effectively.
The dimensions for the refrigerator/freezer: 65 inches tall, 28 inches wide, 35 inches deep
