I have never been so overwhelmed with joy and gratitude. I put in for the groceries on October 1st, October 3rd it was approved and sent out the same day. It is so disheartening and demoralizing as a father to not be able to feed your family. Thanks to the VFAP my fridge and freezer both were filled as well as I also received diapers and wipes. I am beyond grateful and can't thank them enough. You all brought tears of joy to my eyes...Program Recipient
