This request is for a Hope Florida participant that is a mother of a child with a medical condition. This family is struggling with insufficient food due to lack of income. They are in need of high protein food items. The food pantries available do not have the required items they need to maintain the specific diet the child needs. The cost of the foods required for her diet are higher priced. Unfortunately, the child is not able to eat the foods recommended by her doctor for her medical condition. This family is asking for your help with a grocery card. Please lessen the worry and stress of this mom to be able to properly feed this child. This will help the child maintain the proper diet to help her feel better and be properly fed. It may be a gift card for Walmart. Thank you, Care Portal for helping this family.

The family is in need of help. Their home is overrun with roaches, making it an unsafe environment for their two young children—both under the age of 3. The situation is even more heartbreaking as the mother is expecting another child, carrying new life into a home that is barely livable. They are desperate for assistance to afford pest control services, a necessary step toward creating a safe, healthy space for their growing family. Without support, the children and unborn baby remain vulnerable to the dangers of the infestation.
