Molly’s Story

by | Feb 11, 2025

Molly, a single mom, sought help from Bluffton Self Help while rebuilding her life after leaving a challenging domestic violence situation. Despite securing a new job with improved pay, bills remained a struggle. Molly received emergency financial assistance to address her past-due utility bill and with the help of a caring Client Advocate, Molly began to shop at The Market, easing her grocery expenses.

As the Client Advocate showed her around The Market, Molly burst into tears. When she saw the milk, eggs, and fresh produce, she knew she would be able to provide healthy, fresh meals for herself and her son. Molly shopped at The Market every week, and although she still had some hard days, she began to get ahead thanks to the generosity of neighbors helping neighbors.

Soon Molly returned to Bluffton Self Help to share her gratitude for the support that propelled her into a nursing job, a healthy relationship, and financial stability.
