Jennifer Gonzales has been coming to Marisol Family for almost a year and says the program has been a real lifesaver.


Before she found Marisol Family, the mother of three says she couldn’t always afford to buy diapers for her little ones.


“Sometimes we had to choose between diapers and milk,” she shared.


Marisol Family has reduced the financial strain on her family and is making a huge impact on their lives. Beyond the importance of the material items she receives, she says the kindness and support from Marisol Family staff and volunteers makes a world of difference.


“They treat us really well. They’re kind and helpful and super nice to my children and me.”


Jennifer wants everyone to know how grateful she is for the support she receives at Marisol Family. She says it goes beyond diapers and wipes.


“Thank you so much for all the help.”
