Tamara’s world was turned upside down when her son was diagnosed with epilepsy. Frequent hospital visits and mounting bills became overwhelming, and she eventually fell too far behind.
Across Northeast Ohio, requests for emergency assistance have surged, stretching limited resources as agencies work to meet growing needs. Tamara made several calls for help but found none. When she reached out to SVdP, she met staff who not only listened, but worked alongside her.
After her assessment and learning that help was available, Tamara left feeling not only relieved but hopeful. St. Vincent de Paul provided immediate assistance to stabilize her family and connected her with resources for a more stable future.
“I want others to know that even when it’s tough, there is help out there.”
