Choose: Car Registration or Food?

“Christy” is a young single mother with two school age children to support. She makes use of the Pantry when she has an additional expense like her car registration. If she pays for her car registration she does not have enough money for food.  So she makes use of local food pantries for food and then the money usually spent on groceries pays for those additional expenses. Because of this available help, this family does not go without basic necessities.
