Recommendation for Hilliard Food Pantry Plus

To whom it may concern,

I write this letter with immense gratitude for the incredible work done by the Hilliard Food Pantry Plus in the Hilliard, Ohio area. The mission of the Hilliard Food Pantry Plus, to improve the well-being of the community by providing food and support, has undoubtedly left a mark on the lives of countless individuals. In 2023 alone, the pantry served an astounding 13,649 people in Hilliard and the surrounding areas, representing a remarkable 27% increase from 2022. This kind of growth is a testament to the effectiveness of the food pantry in addressing the pressing needs of the community.

Founded 60 years ago, the Hilliard Food Pantry Plus has a rich history deeply rooted in the spirit of community service. Entirely funded by the generous contributions of locals, businesses, and organizations, its dedication to the cause has remained solid over the years. The transition from the “Old Jail” in Downtown Hilliard to the current location reflects the organization’s adaptability and resilience when serving its community.

For those in need, the Hilliard Food Pantry Plus is a lifeline operating four days a week, ensuring that families can access grocery support at a time that suits their schedule. Furthermore, the wide range of volunteer opportunities available underscores the organization’s belief in community participation and empowerment, allowing individuals to contribute in meaningful ways.

As a supporter of this great cause, I look forward to witnessing the continued growth and success of the Hilliard Food Pantry Plus in its mission to make sure everyone can put food on the table.

Sincerely,

Recommendation for The Sanctuary Foster Care Services

To whom it may concern:

It is an absolute pleasure to write this letter of recommendation on behalf of an important organization, The Sanctuary Foster Care Services. Located in Houston, Texas, The Sanctuary Foster Care Services is a child placement agency that is trained in Trust-Based Relational Intervention, offering Wraparound Services to its foster families.

The mission of The Sanctuary Foster Care Services is simple – once a child enters its care, it makes a commitment to work with that child towards healing until they are either returned to their families of origin or to permanency, such as adoption. It strives to stop the cycle of multiple placements that so severely hurt the children in care by providing 24/7 crisis intervention, counseling services for both the children and families, and much more.

At The Sanctuary Foster Care Services, it is truly the staff that makes all the difference. Not only is each one kind-hearted and compassionate, but they genuinely care for those they serve and their community as a whole. They go above and beyond and work tirelessly to ensure the children, and the families they work with, feel safe and supported.

The Sanctuary Foster Care Services is an amazing organization that provides vital support and services to children and foster parents. I commend it staff and volunteers for the good work they do and support them wholeheartedly in their mission.

Sincerely,

Jeff Deurlein
