Testimonials

Dear Ms. Dayhoff,

I just wanted to take a moment of your time to let you know the outstanding work your representative, Ms. Costley does for you. She has been a stellar example of customer service and commassion and the world could use a few more like her.

Since I was laid off my job, she has been instrumental in assisting us with energy help and without it, don't know what we would have done.

I wanted to let you know again how much we appreciate all you have done for us and thank you for your compassion and support.

Best regards,

H.S.

Dear Representative:

Thank you for making my thanksgiving memorable when you invited me to pick up a “care package” at St. John Baptist Church. There’s nothing better than a scrumptious home cooked turkey!

Most Sincerely,

M.R.

Dear Sue,

Thank you so much for all your help. I hope this completes everything so I can stop stressing because the balance is high. I believe you already extended it until 9/15/2012 so it is getting close. I have never had help like this since I have been back from Iraq and the way you are treating me makes me feel appreciated. Work was slow off and on in the spring time and caused me to get way behind especially since they take $200 a week for health insurance and I am the only one working in my house (my wife stays home with the kids), so it is even more tough on me as the sole provider. Thank s again for all your help. You have a gold star in my book!!

Sincerely,

T.N.

I just wanted to take a moment and once again express my appreciation for the help Ms. Costley has helped us with the electric bills for our home. I cannot express in words how much her work has meant to us and wanted to write and let you know that she is a valuable asset to your team.

I have been out of work for three years and at age 59 it is very hard for us to make it. If you need any help there, I would love to help people like you all do and think that would be the ultimate job. I continue to try to find employment but it is a full time job within itself.

In closing let me say that Ms. Costley's efforts have been a Godsend and we are extremely grateful for her and all of the Community Action representative's good works.

Best Regards,

H.S.

G.P. of Columbia wrote glowing words about work CAC's weatherization program. "The workers worked in a timely and professional and courteous manner. I appreciated their concern and willingness to get the job done right. I could not ask for better workmanship. Thank you so much for everything! It is greatly appreciated. My house does seem to hold the heat inside more than before. To see this woman's client survey click here.

Two people wrote to Mrs. Lomax at CAC, "We just wanted to thank you again for helping us to be able to move into our new apartment. The financial assistance you made available to us in our time of need is very appreciated. And we really appreciate everything you did to expedite the process and help us on such short notice. Your generosity and kindness will always be remembered." S.V. & J.G.

Dear Ms. Dayhoff,

I am writing this letter to express my sincere appreciation and gratitude for your paying our electric bill in June. Your help has been appreciated more than words can express and I just wanted to reiterate how thankful and grateful my wife and I are for your assistance these past couple of years.

I am continuing to look for work but the job market is not particularly kind to a 57 year old right now so I have decided to dust off my guitar and have resumed playing music after quitting years ago. I recorded a CD on my computer and it turned out quite well considering I did not have money to do it in a real studio. I actually have some independent radio stations playing it. If I could catch a break, I would have my new job but it is very difficult to get any exposure without money but I try. I would like to invite you to visit my new web page (www.buddyivory.com) and check out some of the tunes. Keep in mind if I could have done this in a studio I would have had a steak but this way I just got a decent hamburger.

I am hopeful that there are better days ahead for all of us.

Again, thank you and God bless you and Community Action.

Best regards,

Mr. S.

Dear Ms. Dayhoff,

A few months ago I had an appointment at Community Action Council with Bob Tickner for help with my electric bill. I'd like to let you know that Mr. Tickner was kind, courteous and respectful. It is very humiliating to ask for help and Mr. Tickner's kindness made a big difference in helping me feel less stressed about the situation. He is an excellent CAC representative.

Ms. S.
