They arrived in a new community with nothing but each other to rely on. No food. No support system. Just the quiet hope that things could get better.
When Natasha found herself struggling with the bare necessities, she turned to the SHARE Food Bank. The sight of a SHARE volunteer helping Natasha fill her wagon with fresh produce, milk, and eggs, was a beacon of hope. But it was more than just food she took home that day. She left with a renewed sense of confidence, a priceless gift that can't be packed in a bag.
That same morning, her son clapped along in circle time for the very first time at SHARE's Family Drop-in program. It was a small moment — but one that followed months of fear and uncertainty after escaping an abusive relationship.
Natasha also met another mom that day. Someone who was also overwhelmed, also wondering if she was doing enough. They talked. They connected. And Natasha found strength in sharing her story.
She left feeling proud.
That afternoon, she submitted her first job application.
