“Dear My Neighbor in Need,
I am a Veteran with medical issues and I am in need of a recliner so I can get up without as much pain. Thank you.”
My Neighbor in Need response,
“We spoke with him, thanked him for his service to our country and we verified his situation. His need was approved and posted on line as well as featured in the Great Falls Tribune. Very quickly, a caring donor contacted us and donated the much-needed recliner. Thank you goes out to the donor.”
“Dear My Neighbor in Need,
I am in need of a couch as my current couch is very old and now the springs are poking through making it very uncomfortable to sit on. Thank you very much.”
My Neighbor in Need response,
“We verified her situation and her residency. Her need was approved and a generous donor offered to help by providing a very clean couch. Our Good Deed Doers are delivering the couch this week. A you rock award goes out to the kind donor.”
