Community contributions: Bluffton Self Help
Sometimes the person who is there to help others finds themselves needing help.
For many years we have been so lucky to have Alice share her extra time with us at Bluffton Self Help. She has shown up whenever asked and added an extra pair of hands whenever needed.
She has always been so appreciated and loved that the staff and volunteers were so saddened to hear that she had lost a family member.
Faced with a limited budget, Alice realized that she would not be able to cover funeral expenses and the utility bills that month.
She asked a Bluffton Self Help staff member for help. Bluffton Self Help was honored to be able to assist someone that so selflessly gave her time to assist people in her community.
Bluffton Self Help provides a broad range of social services for poor working families, the disabled, the sick and the elderly.
