ACS is working with a single mom with 5 children who has been living in a DV situation. The father is no longer in the home and the mother has asked for a safety transfer. She has no furniture and everything they have is packed in a living room as she wats for the transfer. Mom and the children are sleeping in one room and have no air conditioning. She is desperate for some relief for her and the children and is asking for one a/c so they can sleep more comfortably. The children range from 10 months old to 14 years old. The children also need summer clothes.

There are children under our care whose mother has been striving for reunification with them. The agency seeks assistance for the mother. Currently, she is unemployed and is actively seeking employment. She is a Licensed Practical Nurse. An opportunity for employment has arisen with a local agency. However, she requires assistance to cover the fees necessary for renewing her certificate/license. In order to secure employment, she must comply with the requirements set by NY State, which include: Renewing her New York LPN registration, submitting a renewal application, completing the online renewal process via the NYSED Office of the Professions' Online Registration Renewal system, paying a renewal fee of $73 along with a processing fee of $10.95, updating her CPR/AED certificate for $25, and fulfilling CE requirements. I would like to request assistance with these fees, as the mother is currently unable to afford these expenses. Providing her with support for these fees will contribute to a brighter future and financial stability for her three young children. Therefore, I would like to request a gift card in the amount of $125 to enable her to complete her application online.

We are working with a single mom who has 6 children. She has no air conditioners in her apartment and its miserable. There are 4 bedrooms and a living room so they really need 5 window unit a/c's if possible but we will only request 3 because that would make it possible for them to sleep comfortably.

This mom will be getting her new apartment soon after being in a mom and children’s shelter. To help her with her transition, we are looking to help her get a full sized bed and frame to sleep on in her new apartment.

As the hot summer months approach, we have a family in need of Fans (2 if possible, for separate bedrooms areas). The apartment is very hot with no proper circulations.

Unemployed parents with three children in the home, dealing with various medical issues, such as asthma, high blood pressure and severe allergies do not have a cooling system in their home . Due to the increased temperatures this week and the summer in general, it is imperative that this family have an air conditioner and box fans to keep a comfortable temperature in their home to avoid any other potential health risks.

Unemployed single mom of 5 children ages ranging from 5 months-18 years old, is going through a financial hardship. Her EBT card was recently stolen and she is using the limited funds she has at the moment on groceries to feed her children. The family is living in a very high-crime area where they are sometimes afraid to leave their apartment. This family is in need of groceries, cleaning items and baby items. The mother is requesting diapers and wipes for her newborn, baby laundry detergent, cleaning supplies and plastic portable storage drawers from Target.

A resilient young mother is currently facing a difficult chapter. With a 6-month-old baby and a nearly 6-year-old daughter depending on her, she recently suffered a serious foot injury after a fall. This injury has left her unable to work and severely limited her ability to travel or access resources.

Despite her strength and determination, the strain of caring for two young children without income or reliable mobility is immense. Her family urgently needs support: summer clothing for both daughters (size 6 mo. and larger, size 6 and up for the older daughter who likes pink), These basic needs are critical to ensuring the health, comfort, and dignity of her children during this vulnerable time.

We are asking for the following for each girl (3 outfits for each girl): 3 pairs of shorts 3 t-shirts

Your encouragement and support can make a meaningful difference—not just by easing immediate burdens, but by reminding this mother that she is not alone, and that her community sees her, values her, and stands ready to help her move forward.

My client is a single mother of an almost three year old toddler. She is employed full time, but has little disposable income as her daycare costs and living expenses leave her with little disposable income. She has very little family and social support and is in need of a few items for her son. She has created the Amazon wish list below. Any immediate assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
