Throughout the holiday season, Times Record News will be sharing stories of how Times Charities has aided our partner nonprofit organizations in helping individuals throughout the past year.
A woman from South Dakota was stranded in Texas this year because someone brought her to Wichita Falls and dumped her.
The woman’s family bought her an airline ticket to get back home, but she had no way to get to the airport. She turned to Faith Refuge for help.

With donations from Times Charities, Faith Refuge provided her with the funds for a ride to the airport through an app.
Times Charities, a nonprofit created by the Times Record News over 20 years ago, raises money during the holiday season to address financial woes throughout the calendar year. Times Charities also helps area veterans get back on their feet.
Donations to Times Charities go to the four partners: Faith Mission, Interfaith Outreach Services, The Salvation Army and Grace Ministries in Burkburnett.
Overhead expenses are not paid from donations.
No money is spent from the Times Charities account until the situations of those seeking help are verified by our partners.
