Dear MS. Margaret these letters are to thank you for all the help and support that I received while I was doing community hours.
I, Mana Hernandez, want to thank you even more for your tolerance and patience you had. And most importantly, I cannot thank you even more for all the things that my children received in December.
I thank you for everything that you did for me while I was there. You put a smile on my kids face. I felt so comfortable there. I felt loved. It was an emotional filling every time I walked through those doors. Being there helped me ease my mind. I feel so bad inside: I feel I didn’t express myself how I wanted towards every single person there. I love you all.
Sincerely,
Maria Hernandez
Waiting for YOUR letter.
