I am reaching out on behalf of a youth in our care who is preparing to transition out of foster care and into independent living. She is a resilient young woman who has recently reconnected with her biological father and will be moving in with him as part of her transition plan. As she continues to work toward stability and independence, she is in need of a bed to help furnish her new home and support a safe, comfortable living environment. We are seeking a full-size bed (new or gently used), along with bedding if possible. She would like a fuzzy light pink 3 piece bedding set that she saw on Amazon for $44.00.

Previously, this youth was also in need of a laptop for College, which has since been addressed—thank you to those who contributed!

If you or someone in your network is able to assist with this request, please let me know. Her father can pick up the bed.

Thank you for your continued support in helping our young adults thrive as they enter adulthood.

Infant male came into state custody due to neglect and substance exposure. A relative took the child into her home and is in the process of becoming licensed as a relative foster home. She is in need of a 5 lb. fire extinguisher and child locks for lower cabinets.

Two year old girl came into custody due to neglect. The child's great aunt stepped up to provide placement for the child and they are in need of a toddler bed to give the child a safe place to sleep.

Assisting with a hotline report. A mother and her active 2 year old daughter are living in a facility that provides housing. The home is not child-proof. The apartment is appropriate however the mother and daughter share a twin-size bed. There is an additional bedframe in the apartment but no mattress. The family is in need of a toddler bed or twin size bed, bedding and child safety knobs for the doors and stove. These items will aid the family with safe sleep for the child and overall safety of the child in the home. Having these items will prevent that child and mother from sharing a twin size bed, improve her overall wellbeing.

I am working with a family who came to Missouri with the support of an agency to help them get on their feet and pay bills until they could find employment. Due Political changes and loosing funding, the agency no longer has the money to assist the family in paying their rent for the month of April. The family is upset and worried that they will have to move out and become homeless. The father just received confirmation that he has a job; however, it will be a month or so until he gets his first pay check and the rent money is due in the last week or so. The family's washer also is not working so they could use a. new washer so they can clean their clothes because using a laundry mat will be too expensive at this time. The monthly rent is $900.
