Story

•
1 Child 1 Adult

We are requesting support for a resilient and hardworking family who has just moved into their very first apartment. This marks a new beginning after a period of instability, and we hope to help them furnish their new space with the essentials that will make it feel like home.

The family includes a dedicated mother who works part-time and is a huge, integral part of our school community—always giving her time and energy to support students and staff alike. Her child, a student at our school, has an Individualized Education Program (IEP) and has already undergone three or more surgical procedures since birth. Despite these challenges, the family continues to show strength, grace, and a deep commitment to growth. Student is male and will turn 15 this year. Providing family with the following items will allow the student to remain in our school community. While the family does have the keys and access to the apartment, they have not been able to move in fully because they don't have beds.

EDIT: This request is in Zip Code 10473

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

Dear community, we are reaching out to support a hardworking single mother of four who has recently lost her full-time job cleaning hotel rooms due to a drop in bookings. She is now only working two days a week and actively looking for more work. Her job search has been especially difficult due to her legal status in this country, but despite the challenges, she remains hopeful. She is not currently receiving food stamps or child support, which has made it even harder to stay afloat.

She is now short on rent for July 1st, especially after falling behind on her electricity bill. Our organization is stepping in to help with groceries, and basic needs — and we are also working to help her find additional resources. We are doing everything we can to help her and her children stay in their apartment and avoid eviction.

If you’re able to support with some of the rent, no matter how small, it would make a real difference for this family during this difficult time. Thank you for your compassion and solidarity.
