A grandmother and grandfather who care for their grandson are going to lose their housing tomorrow if rent is not paid. The grandfather works hard but has recently had car troubles which has led to lost work hours and money going in to his vehicle. This family is desperate to stay in their home and remain in safe housing. They are still in need of $1,000. If anyone is able to help in any way, this would allow them to stay safe and warm. Thank you for considering!

A mother and her son both have doctors appointments on Monday and getting around for them is difficult without stable transportation. This family has been able to secure a ride but is in need of help with gas money. The appointments are 30 minutes away, making it very difficult to not only find a ride but also get gas. I am requesting $30 to help this family get to much needed drs appointments on Monday 2/17. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you for considering!

This family is currently homeless, doubled up with extended family. They have found a place to rent but need help with the deposit. The amount is $1,450. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I helped the girls at the beginning of the year and they were the rare kids that told me Thank You for helping them.

Items like bath towels are often last on the priority list of items needed but this family has been using ratty old towels for a long time and are in need of an upgrade - no one wants to use a towel with holes in them! I am requesting a Walmart gift card for this family to be able to go shop for new towels. It will not only improve this family's hygiene but will also provide a sense of normalcy in getting to shop for brand new items as a family!

Family is looking for food security would like help with getting groceries. This will help provide food for single parent household for the child involved.

A single mother of threet lost her housingand the family has been living from place to place, currenty in a hotel. As I help look for open shelters, the family is in need of help getting their laundry washed. I am requesting $50 for a gift card to "The Spot" to help with laundry. If anyone is able to help with either of these needs I know it would mean so much to the family. Thank you for considering!

It can be so discouraging to feel like you are making progress but continuing to have obstacle after obstacle. This family is working to find a permanent home, but they have faced many hurdles. Mom just got a new job and is excited to be able to contribute to the family income. Mom is requesting a gas card to help with transportation until she receives her first check. Helping with this need will allow the family to have a little bit of breathing room during this transition.

Moving is hard enough. Not having access to the appliances that you had before, makes it even worse. This family is in need of an electric stove for their new home. Mom does not currently have a way to make meals for the family and that is causing added expenses. If you have a working stove that you are not using, please consider helping this family in need.

The mom and dad are new parents. They have one infant in the home, and are adjusting to being new parents, at this time they are living on one income as they adjust to having an infant in the home. They do however make just over the income amount to qualify for WIC. They have needed to go to the food bank a few times over the last few weeks to receive some help to make ends meet. They are now engaged with help me grow and are utilizing their services but could use some extra assistance until mom goes back to work. They are requesting some help with formula for baby as moms milk supply is not coming in as expected and they are having to supplement. They are requesting some grocery gift cards and a gas gift card if possible. Enfamil formula - gold/yellow cans. (amazon 4 pack 119.00 ) Grocery gift cards to kroger or walmart. ($150.00) Gas gift card to any gas station. ($50)

Remaining in stable housing is cricitical, especialy when you have worked hard to secure a nice home for your family. This mother and father (with three children) both have mulitple jobs, some of which require them to use their vehicle while working. They have mutliple jobs because at the moment that is the most sure way to pay all of their bills. Recently, the father was involved in an accident, which has led to repair costs to his vehicle along with bills towards insurance. The father just got his car back and is back to working hard, but this has really put them behind for upcoming bills. The family is asking for some help towards rent for February so that they can continue to maintain stable housing. This family has gotten all but $300 toards their rent, so I am asking for you to consider helping this family with that amount towards rent so that they do not get evicted. This is a very kind and appreicative family. Thank you for consideirng!
