Story

5 Children 1 Adult

I have a mother 26 weeks pregnant with 5 other children in the home who are in dire need of beds. Their 2-bedroom home had a water leak that leaked into the girl's bedroom in the home for over a month, and they lost a lot of belongings. Mold has taken over that bedroom and had worked its way to other rooms. Water is fixed and were working on the mold at this time. Dad is not in the home and mom only makes minimum wage. The children are sleeping on a sectional couch and wherever they can find. To make enough room in their home for everyone they need 2 sets of bunk beds, a toddler bed, and five mattresses for the beds. There are no dressers in the home either and they would benefit from at least 3. The home is old and doesn't have a closet in any room, so all clothes lay on the floor and a lot were ruined in the water leak. This family has no support from any other family, and we are desperately trying to keep them together.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

We have a mom of four kiddos in need of any assistance available. She was in a hit and run accident in April where her car was totaled. She has applied to multiple loans and she continues to be denied. She would need a vehicle with third row seating to fit the family with car seats, etc. Anything available to help donate to a down payment for a vehicle, or if you know of someone willing to part with a vehicle for an affordable price would be greatly appreciated. The amount input in the request is for a down payment for a vehicle she has found locally to where she can make the monthly car payments. Thank you for any and all help! It is greatly appreciated.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

This mom is trying to get set up with WIC, but she has not been able to get transportation for the appointments. She has been coming to us for help with diapers and formula, but she is needing a bit more to help her get through the month. WIC would be a great resource for her family to help with the cost of groceries and formula. The transportation would be for herself and her 10-month-old son. She has a car seat for him.
