Stories of Impact
Hear from those we’ve helped and those who support our mission
“Getting this assistance came at the most needed time. Money was tight, just got done with washing machine and refrigerator repairs. Thank you kindly Richard Dixon Memorial Foundation”
“The woman Jen who helped me gave me a new lease on life. I was thrown into a hole I couldn’t see a way out when my ex-fiancée up and left without any warning. I am a single mother, about to be without power. The foundation (even though this is not what they usually do) went above and beyond to help me get ahead. For that I am eternally grateful. “
“Dave Cane and all of you great people at American Suncoast Realty [ and Richard Dixon Memorial Foundation]. I can’t thank you enough. Your help mean everything to me!! Thank you all so much.”
” In 2023 I purchased a new electric range. Fifteen months later the oven and digital control panel quit working. I am a widow living on Social Security and a small retirement and didn’t really have the funds to get it repaired. Thanks to the help received from this foundation my range was repaired in time for Thanksgiving.
Thank you for caring enough.”
