of the Month
FRANKLIN FOOD PANTRY
“I am very honored to be selected as Patient of the Month. PT is very difficult, but choosing a charity was also difficult, especially when there are so many worthy causes. My decision to choose the Franklin Food Pantry is based on wanting the donation to stay local and support our community. In hearing stories where so many are still going hungry, when there is so much waste and excess, I find this particularly troubling. “Franklin Food Pantry supports over 1,000 individuals a year, many of them children and seniors. I have been impacted by a situation that I had no control over and was able to seek assistance at PT to make my life better. The food pantry assists many who had been affected by adverse situations, and my hope is that the donation helps make someone’s life a little better.” Pam has been to Professional Physical Therapy multiple times over the years, and over that time, she has become like family. Through all of the ups and downs, Pam has always been focused on her goals and doing all that it takes to achieve them. Pam is the exact patient we think of when we think of Patient of the Month. Congrats, Pam!
