Angel is an extremely hard working single mother of 7 children. They have all had a tough year as many have. Angel hasn't been able to work during the COVID-19 shut-down and has had to assist all her children with their online schooling. She recently lost a family member to COVID-19, and while she was away for the funeral they had a kitchen fire in the home. She is trying to raise funds for the needed repairs as well as searching for work. If she can't get the repairs completed she and her children risk being evicted. They are a very kind family and could really use some assistance during this difficult time.

Our family has been so blessed to have received the help from South Oakland Shelter and the community during our difficult times. We could not be more grateful. Many thanks to all who have helped us during the years.
