Recent single father of a 4 month old baby boy is in need of basic baby supplies. Father currently has basic needs but will run out very soon. Father wants to ensure the safety and wellbeing of his child and wants to make sure he has everything he needs. Father does not speak English but has a friend named Tina that is willing to translate. Father is asking help with:

• 2 packs of size 2 diapers and wipes
• 4 containers of Enfamil infant formula
• 5 sets of baby boy clothes each of any colors with a mix of short-sleeve body suits, shorts, and onesies

Grandparents have taken in two of their grandchildren to help maintain their family connections and keep them safe. They were able to get one bed, but need help to get a twin bed, mattress, sheets, and blankets for their other grandchild to have a safe and supportive place to sleep. If they are able to get a second bed, their grandchild would be able to have better sleep and have all of his needs met.

The family is in need of mattresses, bed frames, and dressers. The mother has worked hard to reunify with her children and is currently on a trial home visit. She has taken all the necessary steps and continues to provide a safe and stable environment, but the family lacks essential furniture. Providing these items would help support the children's transition and ensure they have a comfortable living space.

We have a grandmother caring for her 2 young grandchildren (ages 1 & 2). Grandmother loves to get the kids outside and keep them active. Grandma is looking for a 5 in 1 trike for the kiddos to share. For photo reference: Kinderkraft easytwist trike for kids. 5 in 1, swivel seat, 360 rotation, waterproof material with UPF, adjustable parent handle. This will allow grandma to continue to allow the kids outside time, while keeping them safe whether she is pushing the smaller one, or allowing the older one to ride.

A grandmother is placement for her 1-year-old grandson. She is requesting clothing for him. He wears size 24 month.

A grandmother is placement for her 6-year-old grandson. She is requesting help with groceries for him and them.

I have a single parent home whom is on a fixed income needing bunk-beds for his two daughters. the beds they had, had to be thrown away. They do have mattresses and bedding that could be saved. Asking for metal due to previous pest issues and bunk-beds due to limited space.

Child was recently placed in a kinship placement. Child is in need of a dresser and bedding to support her ability to remain in the home and have her needs met. Child would use the dresser for clothes that are unable to be hung. Child is a teenage female and does not have a particular style, just something that is age appropriate.

A young father has taken on full responsibility for his 2-year-old daughter. This will make the 4th child in the home. The father and stepmother of the child have adequate bedding for 3 of the 4 children. They are now in need of a bed for their 5-year-old daughter.

The children have been removed from the home. Their father is struggling finically as he looks for a new job. Without a gas card, he is struggling to make it to visits in Marion as he has been staying with friends that live 1.5+ away to have a place to sleep at night. The girls love their father and have been suffering strong negative emotions when they are unable to see him.

The children were removed from the home and placed in Cass County and White County. Their mother is struggling financially, so it is difficult for her to be able to make it to visits due to the family's lack of money for gas. They have visits twice a week to ensure the children are able to see their mother on a regular basis.

The family has an open in-home case with DCS. If Mom is unable to improve the family's quality of living there's a chance their case could change to a removal. There are 2 girls age 17 and 14, and three boys ages 12, 7, and 1 in the home. To no fault of their own, there was an incident where all of the electronics in the home were destroyed. Among those devices were five laptops. The children's school replaced four of the laptops. The fifth laptop, issued to Mom by her online school, was not replaced. Mom has learned her school doesn't replace lost, stolen or broken laptops. Mom is working on a Bachelor's degree in nursing and is scheduled to graduate in April. Her nursing training begins shortly after graduation. Mom is hoping to train at a rehabilitation facility or hospital trauma unit. With a 3.7 GPA, Mom is works hard to improve the family's financial stability. The entire family is excited about their future and the doors Mom's career choice will open. Mom is currently going to the public library to attend her classes, work on projects, and compete her homework assignments. When studying at home, Mom was able to manage her classes and care for her 1 year-old toddler. The time away from home drastically limits her availability to care for the youngest child. Mom has not been able to get CCDF and relies on family or neighbors to help her with childcare. This transition has been difficult one the little one causing a clam, loving child to now have concerning behaviors.
