Request: #236716 • Urgency: High • Demographic: Child-Centered Request • City: Los Angeles • State: California • Zip Code: 90011 • County: Los Angeles • Submitted By: DCFS-LA Wateridge • Lead Church: Gardena-Torrance Baptist Church

Story

•
5 Children 2 Adults

We are currently working with a dedicated mother and father who are raising five children, ages 7, 8, 10, 13, and 14. The Department is actively supporting the family as they address an ongoing hair lice outbreak. One significant barrier to fully resolving the issue is the family’s inability to afford new bedding, which is essential to prevent re-infestation and maintain a clean and healthy home environment.

The family is facing financial hardship, and the father, who is undocumented, has limited income opportunities. Despite these challenges, both parents have shown commendable effort and cooperation in managing the situation. The children are doing well academically and socially, and the family is fully receptive to the Department’s assistance.

To support this family in eradicating the outbreak and promoting a safe and sanitary living space, we are requesting the following items: • 3 full-size mattresses • 2 full-size comforter sets (2 set black and grey) 1 full-size comforter set (Princess theme) • 8 pillows

Any assistance or support in providing these essentials would make a significant difference in helping this family move forward in a healthy and stable environment.

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.
