Mr. Mitchell, we’re thrilled to receive your positive review! 

I’m writing this letter of appreciation to thank each and every individual for the help and assistance 

that I have received during the last year or so. It’s greatly appreciated. 

Your organization, The Emergency Needs Task Force has helped me in times when funds were low

 and there was no other place to turn. Especially assisting in my need for food security.

 Each Wednesday and Friday you have provided good quality food to help out with meals.

Again, thank you very much, it is very much appreciated.

 You indeed do a great service to the people in this area.
