The Army of Good is red hot, responsive, generous, and empathetic. suspect it might be growing.

Your work has never been stronger, quicker, or more sensitive. I don’t have many words to thank you, so I’ll keep saying thank you on behalf of the hundreds, not thousands, of people you have helped.

Please keep it up if you can. I sometimes think you are changing the world and keeping love and compassion alive. Thomas Merton said that true love means loving others more than you love yourself. You are full of love.

I wanted to cry when I went over to the Pantry this morning and saw all of the things you had sent in just a few days. A million blessings to you. The shelves have never looked better.

Three cheers for Betty Crock and the Army of Good. She filled the empty shelves along with the other women’s items. Thank you for this. If there were a real Betty Crocker, she would be crying. I might try it.
