Fern and Jeff are an elderly couple making do on a slim income.

Last year Jeff had a stroke and spent a month in the hospital, which put them behind on their bills.

They called The Deep Well Project on a cold winter day needing propane gas to heat their home. Deep Well was able to supply 50 gallons.

Deep Well provides a broad range of social services for poor working families, the disabled, the sick and the elderly.
