Dear John,
Our country has been filled with heroes this year—including some you might not have heard about.
“As President of Catron Food Pantries and as a caregiver to an older disabled vet, I have seen and felt the effects of COVID-19 on an extremely rural area. Availability of goods and services has always been a challenge to the people that live here, now it is multiplied to almost a life-threatening situation. The majority of the senior citizens of this area make monthly visits to ‘town’ to stock up on their supplies. For most this constitutes a 100-mile drive one way. Catron Food Pantries is doing as much as we can to help our neighbors.” - Jann, New Mexico
