Mother is currently needing help due to recent injury at work and getting paid less. She is concerned about her son stealing the marijuana she is using to assist her medically and that is causing major tension in the household. Mother has asked to see if we can help get her a medical lock box for her personal belongings.

The parent for a prior request communicated the incorrect amount for her deposit on apartment. She thought it was $210 but it is actually $300. She is needing to have additional $90 in order to get moved into her new place. TY to the group who offered to pick this up once I resubmitted it TY She is starting over with her kiddos in a new safe place and her first time being on her own. She is grateful for any help that she can get.

Mother recently required surgery and also got removed from her work position/transferred into a new position more suitable for her. This new position, however doesn't pay as much so the mother is not making as much as before. She is needing temporary assistance to help get caught up on a few things, but is working and trying to maintain stable housing for her child. Mom would like assistance with rent (1200) at least with half (600), electric (160.29) and gas (278.65)

Mother is in desperate need of a gas card to get to and from important meetings regarding her children.

I am assisting a family that has a pest problem and are in need of a queen bed frame to get their mattress and box spring off of the ground, two queen size mattress protectors, and queen size sheets/bedding. This is a single parent on a very limited income and does not have resources to purchase these items. They are currently sharing the queen size mattress due to space. Any and all help is greatly appreciated!

I am working with a family to help keep their 3 young children safely in the home with them. The children are 1 (girl), 2.5 (boy) and 5 (boy). One of the major goals of this case is to improve supervision with the children and to increase their bonding efforts. Currently the family is not able to sit together to eat. This is difficult given the ages of the children. They do have a table and 2 chairs, they could use 2 or 3 kitchen table chairs, a highchair or booster chair that clips on to a chair with a tray. The family would be open to used and would also take an entire table chair set if someone had one.

The family also desperately needs cleaning supplies and hygiene items: paper towels, Clorox wipes, all-purpose cleaner, dish washing soup, liquid and dish-washer appropriate, laundry detergent, baby wipes, toilet paper and even queen size sheets.

I know it's a lot and please don't feel like you have to get it all. Anything helps. The most urgent need is the highchair and baby wipes. With 3 kids they go through a lot!

These items will help the family get their dining room cleaned up and appropriate to help facilitate family time and safer eating solutions than what they have currently been doing. I am happy to facilitate delivery in any way that I can. Please let me know if you have any questions!

The child is in need of a mattress and a bed frame.

Clay County Children's Division frequently works with families who do not have transportation, but they need to get their children to the hospital, to forensic interviews, or to other vital appointments. These appointments are often unplanned and urgent. We are requesting 5 $50 Uber cards to have available when these unexpected needs arise.

A family of 4 is in need of 4 smoke detectors. The family’s youngest child is 14- months old. After an almost 7-month long NICU stay he is home with his family. The child went home on oxygen. The family home currently does not have smoke detectors. Being on oxygen comes with an increased risk of fire. The mother will really like smoke detectors in the home to help put her mind at ease and know her baby is sleeping safely. The family has reached out to several nonprofits and fire departments who were unable to help meet this need. Thank you for considering the opportunity to serve a sweet sweet family.

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.
