Memorable Anecdotes From Work

“One funny thing that happened to me was when a couple came in and asked for a death certificate.”
~Lora Snodgrass

“I work on the maintenance staff, and it makes me feel really good when I go to a tenant’s house who is appreciative of the help our organization is giving them.”
~Mark Stover

“A memorable anecdote for me is seeing an agency peer go into labor at a training seminar in Columbus!”
~Jean Hollenbaugh

“We have a small vending machine in our office kitchen and I had asked the vendor for Coke. When the machine was filled, I was at lunch and when I came back I noticed there was no Coke. When I inquired of my trusted staff what had happened, they told me: ‘No one here drinks Coke, so we told him not to put any in the machine.’Lesson learned: Don’t go to lunch!”
~Penny Osborne

“WIHC was able to move a couple and their newborn into housing after the couple became homeless one month before the baby was born.”
~Veronica Miller

“My favorite anecdote would have to be when I got my cat Rel. Someone had abandoned her in our play area at WIHC. She is a constant reminder to me that homelessness is abandonment - abandonment by our society. We are all only one bad decision from being homeless ourselves!”
~Cathy Lanham

“I remember getting the program house tenants ‘Christmas gifts’ off their wish lists, which consisted of household supplies: vacuums, dishes, irons.”
~Julie Miller

“Interfaith is where homes can be found for the homeless with a warm and friendly welcome by the people who work to give a helping hand to the less fortunate.”
~Irene Nabeau
