 "Times have been rough and it [is] always good to have someone lend you a hand.  I've just had my baby 10 days ago and I'm going [through] some money issues, which I know will [be] temporary while I get back on my feet.  I really appreciate LIFE/Houston for giving me a hand through these times.  Now I know that someday I can give back as well. Thank you. You help is really appreciated.

Sincerely, Kaitlynn y Maria"  (5/27/2011)
