The faces below are of Modest Needs grant recipients from this week, and they want to thank you for helping them avoid the cycle of poverty before it starts.

"You have renewed my faith in humanity. In the economic times effecting us all, for you to reach out and help my family be able to become self sufficiant has brought tears of joy to our eyes. This will mean that I will be able to return to my nursing and take care of our financial obligations and his continued medical needs/expenses. I have a renewed sense of hope in everything. Thank you does not say enough-I intend to 'pay it forward'. I will fall asleep tonight with hope for all of our futures that YOU have made possible."

"I would to thank the Modest needs Foundation and Donors for your help!!!!!!! You are truly amazing people who give myself and others in need hope. I will be forever grateful for your thoughtfulness and kind generosity. Not only by helping me financially, but also spiritually. I appreciate this more than words could say... Thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart for your help, thank you for being you :)"

"Please accept my heartfelt 'Thank You', to the Modest Needs donors and the Modest Needs team who helped me when I needed it the most. Today had been a difficult day. My day at the hospital didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. I found I urgently needed my vehicle fixed, but I was out of ideas on how to make this happen. Tonight I received my notification and the timing was a true miracle. I am so overwhelmed by the kindness and generosity of the wonderful people that cared enough to help. The words I write, can not tell you just how grateful and blessed I feel. This will never be forgotten and will always be appreciated. Again, Thank You, all."
