I had an appointment at the HEN assistance program the other day. I took the local shuttle, which only cost me $3.00 round trip, and they gave me toilet paper, shampoo, bar soap, toothpaste, all purpose spray cleaner, razors, and even a mop and a mop bucket! They even offered me a 25 dollar gift card for gas; I told them I don't drive, but they said that, if I wanted it, I could give to my son because he drives me around sometimes. So I went ahead and accepted it, which was perfect because I needed my son to take me grocery shopping last night and he was low on gas. Luckily I have a food card, and I still had about 110 dollars left on it, so that helped. It's amazing how even a little bit of help can make a big difference.
