Heartfelt Review From Faith Works Coalition Recipient
Grateful for faithworks coalition
Words cannot express how thankful and humble that I am to the Faith Works Coalition. After experiencing a horrendous fire in my house I lost many of my personal items, money and furniture. Even though, my insurance company paid for the majority cost of the repairs in the home the contractor that I hired took a large portion of the money and never did all of the repairs. I hired a lawyer and paid her a large amount of money to handle my case; she wasn’t successful in retrieving the money. However, the house is in livable condition with the help of FAITH WORKS COALITION.
In retrospect, after the fire I wasn’t able to get my life back on track I was feeling so depressed. One morning early I was walking near the lake in the back of my house to pray. As I open my eyes wide I saw this man who seemed to come from nowhere. He started up a polite conversation, I rarely talk to strangers with personal stories I normally just chit-chat; somehow one word led to another I spoke to him briefly about my dilemma and.. Bingo! He told me about FAITHWORKS COALITION as he walked away. I shouted back what’s the name of that place again; I was so excited I thought I had forgotten the name he again said “Faith works” with his hands reaching and waving to the heaven’s as he disappeared.
The blessings that I have received from, Faith Works Coalition has truly given me back the strength to get out of this depression, start enjoying my family and friends again. The FWC has reinforced and given me the gifts to know there are still people who care, love and support others unconditionally. I told you this story to share my gratefulness for Faith Works Coalition. I appreciate your help and support again, again and again. “God Bless You All”

Faith Works Coalition helped out by replacing a broken window and doing extensive repair work to the family kitchen. A group of project managers with a Home Depot Kitchen Design Specialist select new kitchen cabinets, counter tops and flooring for a full kitchen rehab.
