"I was in-between jobs, and I was married. We needed some assistance so we went to such and such,and then we found Hays County Food Bank to give us some assistance.
There was a lot of friendliness, and they were all helpful. They gave you recipes; different ways to cook the food. I already know how to cook, but still it was nice that they had friendly faces."
"My husband is a small business owner, and he works off of commission. He builds furniture, so if he doesn't get a commission that month it’s just harder for us to… to have food. So the food bank has been there in those times when we just need a little extra help that month."
"I have been retired for about 2 years. I can’t get a job; I’m too old. You know, nobody hires a 63 year-old man.
So we came here and I stay, and that was when the big flood hit San Marcos and flood everything. So, I went volunteering. The first time I went to help there in Wimberley, and that’s when they tell me about the food bank, and I start coming here."
"They (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or SNAP) cut me from $200 when I first found the place. I am now at $30. And I don't get much in Social Security."
