Testimonials and thank you notes we received from clients
"Today I was able to pick up my car this morning and it was all thanks to the generosity and kindness of community. Thank you so much for all you do each day and for the Hopkinton Emergency Fund's magnificent support. Because of all of you I did not have to default on my bills while saving towards the bill I had to pay for the repair costs of my car which has been a life line for myself and my kids. I would not have been able to come up with the money that the fund so graciously donated to help off set the car. I truly feel the support of the community. my kids and I are very fortunate to be in a town that cares for its residents and to come together in time of need. I hope one day I can give back to the HEF and the office of youth/services that supported me tremendously! I am looking forward to getting back on track and back to my families routine."

"Recently my car broke down and I did not have the money to fix it. It is an older car and it needed a rebuilt engine and a water pump. I am 60 years old and my health is not so good. My car is what gets me to and from my dialysis appointments. I asked for help with the payment and with the help of St Vincent de Paul and the Hopkinton Emergency Fund I was able to get my car fixed. I really appreciate everything they have been able to do for me. It helped me so much. Thank you!"

"Despite support from other existing human service organizations in the Hopkinton Helpers network, we still found that there were needs we collectively could not meet. The Hopkinton Emergency Fund will provide the community with a much-needed safety net to support those who need assistance and ensure they do not fall through the cracks. "

"Frequently, needs presented to Saint Vincent De Paul cannot be met in full, either independently or through the Hopkinton Helps network. In those cases, the Hopkinton Emergency Fund would be of extreme help to serve as a financial backstop for SVDP and the Hopkinton Helps network more broadly."
