Help Remove an Educational Barrier for a Child
The school community closet Warrior Closet gives every kid who visits for back-to-school backpack and school clothes shopping a brand new pair of shoes to start school in. We are preparing for our August 5th opening back. We had 99 kids come through last year for the three-day 6hrs of events. I like to put this out early so people contributing can keep an eye on the sales and when, especially Famous footwear and or Rackroom, do buy one get one 1/2 off bogos on shoes and backpacks. They also put a lot of shoes on clearance that you can buy with the BOGOs too. The kids 11 through size 1 love the character shoes. The 2 and or above ones I would do something they can wear more with everything.

Hello, I have a single mother of 3 children who is in need of some assistance. Mother has started a job but has not gotten paid yet because she needed to get her licensing and credentials approved. She is struggling with gas money to get back and forth to work and to get her children to their appointments. Once this need is met this will allow mom to get back and forth to work along with getting her children to their appointments.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to kindly request support in acquiring a small stand-up refrigerator for the community pantry I oversee. Our pantry serves as a vital resource for many residents, and we strive to provide not only shelf-stable items but also fresh, nutritious options. Unfortunately, without proper refrigeration, we are currently limited in our ability to offer perishable foods like fresh fruits and vegetables—items that are both highly requested and essential to a balanced diet. A small refrigerator (as we do not have a lot of space to work with) would allow us to accept and safely store produce donations, reduce waste, and increase access to healthier food choices for individuals and families who rely on our services. This addition would greatly enhance our ability to support the well-being of the community in a more sustainable and impactful way. Thank you for considering this request. Please let me know if you need any additional information. I would be happy to provide details or coordinate further.

Help Prevent a Child From Entering Foster Care
A child has had lice for about two months now. She has missed 12 days of school and is now missing end of year testing. Her guardian has not been able to contain the lice with over-the-counter products, and she is in need of professional treatment. I have located a salon in the area that is able to provide services at a discounted rate so that she does not miss any more school. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. If you are able to assist, please reach out to me and I will provide the information for the salon where gift certificate can be purchased.

Help Prevent a Child From Entering Foster Care
A mother and her children are fleeing a domestic violence situation, and his home was the home they were living in but the utilities are in her name. She has notified the Evergy and KCMO water that she is not living there anymore. She needs $210 for apartment admin fees and she needs to bring the electric and water current so they can transfer to her at the new place. She has moved hotels twice to stay away from her abuser, and she is going to start counseling services once she is stable in her living arrangement.
She is helping herself and needs a little more help, not a handout, but a hand up. Children's Division saw the family in a hotel yesterday and they have gone to shelters for food. The mother has a stable job and if she can get the help with these needs, she will be on her way to financial independence and not reliant on her abuser for shelter.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing
Mom is a single mom, has 2 kids (one of which is trying to get an internship with a law firm this summer). Mom is unable to pay the water bill and the water has been shut off. Mom was on the phone at 7:15 with Catholic Charities trying to get assistance, but once she got though, the lady said she was done for the day. Mom has actively been trying to get assistance, she just needs a little more help. Mom doesn't get paid until Friday. This would help the entire family.

Help Preserve a Foster Care Placement
A foster family currently has multiple children in their home with varying ages from different families. The placement has two pack and plays, but has been told they are needing to obtain cribs for two of the children in their home. One of the children in the home has a sibling in the home. All of the children in the home have bonded with both of the infants and would be very sad to see them leave if the children are not leaving to return to their parents.
