Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

Request: #237220 • Urgency: Normal • Demographic: Child-Centered Request • City: Castle Rock • State: Colorado • Zip Code: 80109 • County: Douglas • Submitted By: Douglas County Department of Human Services

Story

•
1 Child 1 Adult

A 14 year old boy was recently placed with his grandmother. Grandmother was recently let go from her long term employment and has struggled to get past the second (in person) interview. She was not planning to retire for a few more years and has been living on her savings, but it was important to her that her grandson not be placed in foster care. Grandmother gardens and cans much of her own food and tries to be frugal, but this placement was not expected. Grandmother would appreciate assistance with groceries as feeding a teen age boy was not in her budget.

Our Church can provide this need. If it is helpful, we'd love to deliver it either to the client's home or meet them in a public place (i.e. Starbucks) and deliver it. Let me know your preferred method.

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.
