http://ufdc.ufl.edu/UF00028315/04046
A local retired furniture salesman with
some leftover new furniture found a home for some of it. After
loosing everything being unable to work in the cold harsh northern
environment the Army veteran and his wife relocated to Citrus County
Florida. Having spent all of their money on motel rooms they found
shelter at a local mission. The mission helped them get housing
through the VA
Supportive Housing initiative, run in partnership with the Department
of Housing and Urban Development. The problem, they had no furniture
for their apartment and no money to buy it with. Through the local
Disable American Veterans they were hooked up with retired furniture
salesman who is also an Air Force veteran. He and his wife donated a
new bedroom set to the couple for their new apartment.
The
problem presented in this article is that there are people in need in
our local community.
The
homeless couple that relocated from up north were the one with the
problem.

makes $10,000 donation to food bank

bank made a $10,000 donation to a local food bank that provides food
to local residents in need. This donation will enable the food bank
to purchase 88 pallets or 112,000 pounds of food that will provide
about 80,000 meals.
The
problem presented in this article is that there are still people in
our community that are not able to buy food.
The
people with the problem here are the ones in the community that are
not able to buy food.

Community
comes together to ensure families don't go hungry
The
Church Without Walls held their annual Thanksgiving food and turkey
giveaway at their recently acquired property. Pastor Doug Alexander
said that over 1,200 turkeys and related Thanksgiving food items were
given away. He also said that the whole community had come together
to make this happen.
There
are still people in our community that are not able to get food to
celebrate Thanksgiving.
Those
with the problem are the ones that need help to get food for a
Thanksgiving meal.

Locally
horses are being used as therapy to treat children with sensory
processing disorder. This helps to increase their coordination and
balance. Also, some of the children ave very tight muscles. Laying
them flat on the back of the horse helps them to relax and loosen
their muscles.
There
are children with some unusual ailments that have some unusual
treatments.
The children are the ones with the
problem due to no fault of their own.
