“I will always be very grateful for everything that the Interfaith Hospitality Network program has done for me and my family. If I’m ever financially secure enough, I would like to make donations to help the program that helped me and my family in this difficult time in our lives.” “I’m glad my family is in this program and planning to achieve our goals while we are here. Me and family appreciate all the help that you’re giving us and we will never forget you.” “In my mind this was a good experience for my family because it brought us closer together and showed us how to be more focused about things.” “I am very grateful that Interfaith Hospitality Network accepted me and my 2 children to live here temporarily and gave us beautiful churches to sleep in until we get housing. Thank you.” “I appreciate the people opening up their church and letting my kids have a warm place to sleep.” “It is a place that will help you and get where you need to go in life.” “They were there for me and my son, and we felt safe.”↑ Return to Top The Volunteers “The volunteers didn’t make you feel like you were a ‘homeless family’ but just a good family in a bad situation. Didn’t feel judged.” “The volunteers were willing to sit and talk with you about some of our problems. They seemed very concerned about everyone in the program.” “The volunteers were friendly and showed us our sleeping area. It was very nice, clean and comfortable.” “They were very pleasant and went out of their way to make our families feel comfortable.” “They treated us as their friends or their brothers/sisters.”
