CharityTracker™ in Action
A woman, working to support herself with a modest seamstress services business, grappled with a setback when her sewing machine broke. This put her out of work. Rather than having to find another job and/or access benefits to make ends meet until she could afford to buy a new sewing machine, her church posted her need on CharityTracker™. Five organizations responded, and she had her choice of several different sewing machines that could be delivered to her church by the end of the day. With this rapid response and assistance, she was back to work the next morning.
