At Lend A Hand Society, we understand that when times are challenging, people need a helping hand. LAH grants are at work every day helping people in the community make it through emergency situations. There are many compelling stories, such as Mrs. N, who has been struggling with significant financial pressures. Recently, her rent increased unexpectedly, adding a heavy burden to her already tight budget. With her husband unable to work due to a physical disability, Mrs. N’s income has been the household’s primary support. This financial strain was further compounded by extensive medical expenses and an unexpected car accident, making it increasingly difficult to make ends meet.
Recognizing the urgent need, her social worker from a community partner senior service agency applied to Lend A Hand Society on her behalf to help her with a grant to manage the rising costs. LAH’s grant helped our client cover her rent and focus on recovery without the fear of losing her home.
Lend A Hand Society is committed to helping people like Mrs. N navigate difficult circumstances. Our goal is to provide the assistance people need to overcome obstacles and move forward with greater confidence and security.
