1 Child 2 Adults

This request is for a family CarePortal has recently helped in the BV area. Five-year-old non-verbal autistic child is on a trial home placement. Services are limited in the area and both the child and mother are utilizing some services that require a bit of travel. Finances are currently strained while they cannot get SNAP for the child, as he is still in foster care. The family paid for travel weekly for 9 months for visitation and parenting courses, which caused the family a financial deficit. The mother cannot work due to the child's high level of needs which prevents him from being successful in a daycare setting. The father works fulltime, but is responsible for covering all the bills, which he does. The child's trial home placement will continue for approximately 3 more months, following which the family will be able to receive benefits for the child. The family is in need of assistance with gas cards to assist with transportation, pull-ups, and groceries. The mother continues to work on toilet training and has been utilizing food banks, but the child is unwilling to eat most foods provided by the food bank. Pull-ups needed are children size XL.

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.
