Student Testimonial

"I was involved in a car accident that left me unable to work and struggling to make ends meet for my family. Despite my best efforts, I couldn't find a job after I was healed and found myself with a $500 shortfall in rent for the upcoming month.

The grant allowed me to avoid eviction and ensure me and my family had a roof over our heads, as it gave me exactly the $500 that I needed for my rent.

I am forever grateful to seeds of hope for their assistance and for teaching me the importance of seeking help when needed. My experience has shown me that even in our darkest moments, there is always hope and help available. I hope that my story can inspire others who may be facing similar challenges to seek the support they need."

- Nathaniel, FVTC student.
