Your generosity makes a real difference for Rhode Island families like Alba’s. Diagnosed with gastric cancer, Alba has seen her income cut in half because treatment forced her to reduce her work hours. Despite working hard and earning too much to qualify for most community programs, Alba still struggles to cover basic needs. Thanks to donors like you, JAF was able to provide a Food Security Grant, a Financial Assistance Grant, and an Extraordinary Needs Grant to pay for critical car repairs—ensuring Alba can get to her treatments and keep moving forward. Your support gives hope and stability when it’s needed most.
