"The BBS' Covid19 support has helped more than I can say. I couldn't pay my rent, & the stress was overwhelming. BBS funds have allowed me to pay a small amount of overdue rent to my landlord, & provided leverage to create a reasonable agreement for future payments. I can't express my gratitude to the organisation for supporting me when I needed them most."
