Halima is recovering at home after undergoing three surgeries within two weeks, following an incident last October. As she faces a long recovery, she requires significant support with daily tasks and is in the process of obtaining an IHSS worker. With no income currently, her case managers are assisting her in exploring resources for food. A Sam's Club gift card would be invaluable for Halima, allowing her to purchase groceries in bulk, ensuring she has nutritious meals readily available at home. This would help maintain her strength and energy during recovery while easing the burden on her support team.
