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.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

Three siblings currently residing with their grandmother in St. Joseph are in urgent need of support. The family requires two twin-size mattresses to replace those that were infested with bed bugs, as well as three pillows—one for each child. Providing these items will help preserve the current kinship placement and ensure that the siblings can remain together in a safe and stable environment. The Missouri ICPC has requested additional services for this family, and we want to ensure they are fully prepared for the upcoming DSS visit scheduled for May 14th.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

This family has already had their water shut off due to non-payment. They are very close, 2 weeks at most, to having their Sewer cancelled as well as Gas and Electricity.
There is a mom, Gpa, Adult brother and 3 school age children all living in the home the mother owns.
Fixed income by G-pa, Brother in/out of work, mom has been unemployed until 2 weeks ago due to health issues. She got a good job w/ the city and is in danger of losing it if she gets a utility shut off by the city. Back to square 1.

There are 3 school age children who can not bathe appropriately, wash their clothes effectively and come to school dirty, smelling, its difficult for them to learn due to other children teasing them, itchy skin, all the things.

Community Action Partnership is already maxing out their funds to help catch up on the utility bills and pay to current. Catholic Charities is helping as well.

This family is in desperate need of $755. 92 to pay the sewer bill to current and $133.18 to pay the water to current to keep and turn all back on. With Mom's income continuing, she feels confident they can catch back up and get back on their feet.

Please help in any way possible and thank you in advance.
