This organization has truly been a blessing. I have been given food, clothing, furniture, temporary housing, transportation and household items. They have given my family all kinds of love, support, guidance, and resources during our major housing situation. I feel amazing and never could have made this tremendous progress without FP Philly. I appreciate all of you.
