Success Stories
“I have a gentleman
that was in need of
furniture and was
given a referral to
LOVE INC. The referral
was given 5/20/09 and
due to the fact that he
is a CCI client, his
referral was processed
in 3 weeks and items
were scheduled to be
received on the week
of June 20th.
Normally there is a
minimal 6 week
waiting period at least.
In addition, my client
attended a finance
class presented by
LOVE INC. and has
signed up for the six
week session. The
client stated that he
feels more HOPEFUL
knowing that he has
SUPPORT.”
