Man, 3 grandchildren, helped by Deep Well after fire

At age 62, Franklin is raising his three grandchildren because of their dysfunctional parents.

After his home was damaged by fire, the Red Cross referred him to Deep Well. He and his grandchildren had no place to stay while his home was being repaired.

Deep Well paid for 10 nights at a motel, until the repairs were completed and they could move back.

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