Testimonials

"Your ideas and recommendations were exactly what was needed. In today’s busy business world, this is an example where all things “clicked.” No matter the outcome, your participation in bringing our son together with someone who can give him the financial advice he needed, will long be remembered by me. Thank you CONTACT!"

"You made me feel very comfortable and explained to me how sometimes we get into situations beyond our control. Our family, because of you, got financial assistance that we did not know even existed. I hope to be back to work very soon and have everything functioning at a normal pace from here on in. Without your help, my family would never have made it. Words can’t express the difference you made in our lives."

"CONTACT has helped me find a place to stay and an employment opportunity. Most of all the CONTACT gave me positive support to continue doing what I needed to make a proper life for myself. I was homeless for 3 years, now thanks to the help of CONTACT, I have a paying job and a place to stay! "
