Story

•
1 Child 1 Adult

I am requesting assistance for a donation of a mini crib with a mattress on behalf of a mother. Due to the limited space in her single-sized apartment, a compact or “mini” crib with a mattress would be most suitable.

Mother is a resilient and courageous mother who recently made the brave decision to provide a safe and stable environment for her 8-month-old baby and the child she is currently expecting. She has faced numerous challenges, threats from local gang members, and eviction due to financial hardship.

Mother has since relocated to a small apartment where she resides with her child, and two other adult relatives. Despite her circumstances, she remains focused on rebuilding her life. She has enrolled in educational programs and is actively participating in services.

A mini crib with a mattress would provide a much-needed safe and secure sleeping space for her baby, offering both physical safety and emotional comfort during this critical period of transition.

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.
