I have a family who is struggling financially and are unable to get a crib for the 5 months old boy. The parents are dealing with unexpected expenses related to a very expensive surgery that the 5 years old needs to have as soon as possible due to a medical diagnosis. The parents are hopeful to be able to overcome the current struggles they are facing financially to be able to continue providing safe environment for the children to thrive. Currently the parents are co-sleeping with the 5-month-old, and are in need of a crib, mattress, and sheets so that the baby can sleep independently. The parents are not able to afford purchasing a crib at this time. Providing these basic necessities would diminish the emotional stressors on the family. By fulfilling this request, it would help the Department reduce the family's financial burden and help prevent court involvement and ensure family stability.

I am currently working with a family in need. The household consists of a single mother and her three children—two boys, ages 11 and 6, and a 5-month-old daughter. The mother is incredibly resilient and has navigated many challenges throughout her journey in motherhood. At present, she is unemployed and under significant stress due to the father's absence from the home and his lack of support, particularly in caring for their 6-year-old son, who has been diagnosed with autism and requires high levels of care. The family lives in a single-family home with very worn furniture and limited clothing. Currently, the mother shares a mattress with both of her sons and her infant daughter. To help improve their living conditions and promote the children’s safety and comfort, the Department would like to assist the family in obtaining the following items: a trundle bed, twin mattresses. Providing these basic necessities would not only ease the mother’s emotional and financial burdens but also allow the children to have their own beds, helping them get proper rest to start their days well.

I am requesting assistance for a donation of a mini crib with a mattress on behalf of a mother. Due to the limited space in her single-sized apartment, a compact or “mini” crib with a mattress would be most suitable.

Mother is a resilient and courageous mother who recently made the brave decision to provide a safe and stable environment for her 8-month-old baby and the child she is currently expecting. She has faced numerous challenges, threats from local gang members, and eviction due to financial hardship.

Mother has since relocated to a small apartment where she resides with her child, and two other adult relatives. Despite her circumstances, she remains focused on rebuilding her life. She has enrolled in educational programs and is actively participating in services.

A mini crib with a mattress would provide a much-needed safe and secure sleeping space for her baby, offering both physical safety and emotional comfort during this critical period of transition.
