My name is Elizabeth Romero, and I’d like to share my story. When the economy took a downturn, I lost my job. As a single mother of three teenagers, things became incredibly difficult. I struggled to provide basic necessities like backpacks, school clothes, and bus passes for my two oldest children, who relied on public transit to get to school.
Helping Heroes of the World stepped in when we needed it most. They provided groceries for my family and made sure my kids had the school supplies they needed, including bus passes for my teens. They even assisted me with job placement and gave me a gas voucher so I could get to work until I received my first paycheck.
Helping Heroes of the World supported my family during some of our toughest times. Their kindness and generosity gave us hope and helped us get back on our feet. Thanks to them, we are now doing well, and we are deeply grateful. The Romero family will always remember Helping Heroes of the World and everything they stand for.
Thank you—we appreciate and love you all!
Making a Difference
Our charity has been dedicated to supporting heroes around the world who selflessly serve their communities. Through your donations, we are able to provide essential resources and assistance to those in need.
When my mother was first diagnosed with diabetes, we had no idea how complicated managing her healthcare could become. After a simple mistake with her healthcare provider, my mother suddenly ran out of her life-sustaining insulin. She was left with no more medication samples, and we found ourselves tangled in the difficult maze of prescriptions, documents, and the complexities of Medicare—an overwhelming burden for anyone, let alone my mother at 79 years old.
Just when things seemed most hopeless, Helping Heroes of the World stepped in with open arms and compassionate hearts. The team at H.H.W. spoke patiently and persistently with Medicare and her healthcare provider, not just once, but several times. They never gave up on our situation—they helped gather all the necessary paperwork and prescriptions, and most importantly, helped my mother understand what was happening with her own health. That sense of clarity, patience, and genuine care made all the difference, especially as my mother was feeling anxious and powerless.
Recognizing how urgently my mother needed her medication, Helping Heroes of the World did more than just provide guidance—they purchased an entire month’s supply of insulin and other essential medications, ensuring my mother would not go without what she needed. They did all this while working behind the scenes to get her healthcare insurance and providers to coordinate her care properly, so she wouldn’t face this crisis again.
What stood out to us was the dignity with which we were treated. At no point did we feel judged, belittled, or shamed for the confusion we felt—only supported and respected. The kindness we received was genuine, and the help was offered without conditions or hesitation.
As a family, we are forever grateful for the care, compassion, and determination of Helping Heroes of the World. They embody what it means to truly serve others, and I will always remember their kindness during such a vulnerable time in our lives.
With sincere gratitude,
