Request: #213852 • Urgency: High • Demographic: Child-Centered Request • City: San Antonio • State: Texas • Zip Code: 78251 • County: Bexar • Submitted By: Texas Grandparents Raising Grandchildren • Lead Church: United By Grace Baptist Church

Story

•
3 Children 1 Adult

We have a 74 year old grandmother who is raising her 3 grandchildren, a boy age 16, a girl age 15, and another boy age 13. She has raised these 3 grandchildren for about 8 years when the children's mother brought them to the grandparents home for spring break and never returned to pick them up. The grandmother has legally adopted them, but does not receive any monthly monies or funds from the state to support these kids. She makes about $4200 a month which includes social security and retirement benefits from her and deceased husband accounts. She would like to request 1 set of twin bunk beds for the boys as the current set is old, dilapidated, falling apart , and the boys have outgrown the beds.

Updated on February 14, 2025 by an Agency Worker
2/13/24 spoke with Tim Son and Ernesto Flores regarding bed request. Initial bed request was for 1 twin sized bunk bed to include all linens. Upon further review, the initial bed delivery was declined because of the size of the boys, one being 6'2", the other being overweight and both Tim and Ernest thought that the beds they were to deliver would not support the boys over time. Ernie is in Houston, TX for the weekend and is scouting around for a heavier, sturdier bunk bed to purchase for the boys. He will keep me updated when/if they find something.
