Story

•
1 Child 1 Adult

I am reaching out on behalf of a young father who is currently the full-time caregiver for his 1-month-old son. As a senior in high school, he has taken on this responsibility alone after the child’s biological mother chose to step back from her parental role. He resides with his mother and siblings, who offer some support, but he remains the primary caregiver and is fully committed to being actively involved in every aspect of his son’s care. Balancing the demands of school and parenthood, he is in need of essential baby items to help ensure his son’s comfort and well-being. We are kindly requesting assistance or donations of baby clothes (size 0–3 months, including booties or socks), diapers and wipes, a stroller, a baby bathtub, bottles, baby toiletries, and burping cloths. Any support provided would make a meaningful difference as this young father navigates this new chapter. We sincerely appreciate your time, consideration, and generosity.

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.
