Story
A devoted and loving caregiver has legal custody of her two precious grandchildren—a 9-year-old grandson and a 6-year-old granddaughter. She has been their rock, providing them with a safe, nurturing home after they experienced a traumatic event in their lives. However, she recently lost her job in January 2025, and as a result, she is struggling to cover her $885 rent for February. Despite this setback, she remains determined. She has applied for unemployment and is actively job searching, completing weekly job trackers to prove her efforts. Unfortunately, she has exhausted all available community resources for rental assistance. PRC denied her application due to her current unemployment status, IMPACT Community Action only assists with court-ordered evictions, and Clintonville Beechwold Center and Franklin County Senior Options do not have funding at this time. This caregiver is doing everything in her power to regain stability. She is confident that by March, she will secure employment or, at the very least, be approved for unemployment benefits. In the meantime, she faces this urgent need. Any support during this difficult time would mean the world to her and the two young children who depend on her. Your kindness and generosity could help keep this loving family in their home.
