Andy is on Social Security disability due to her HIV status but does not receive food stamps because her disability income is too high. Therefore, Andy needs a food source for herself. Through Western North Carolina Community Health Services, Andy discovered LFR, which she calls ‘the only resource for food for me to stay in good health.’ Andy stressed that the fruit, vegetables and protein that she receives from LFR have helped her control her weight with healthy food and lose 100 pounds. She is grateful to LFR for helping her and her family.—Loving Food Resources staff
