Lincoln Berean Church

This family is comprised of a single mother with 4 children. They recently had to move out of their household and are now homeless. The family has been staying at the mission but two of the children are diagnosed with autism and being at the mission has been difficult for them. Their mother has applied to many different apartments and houses but continues to get denied due to not having enough money to cover the first month's rent and the deposit.

Mom is requesting financial assistance to help pay for the deposit on a new apartment or house for the family to live in.

With financial assistance, the family will be able to find safe and stable housing, preventing the possible removal of the children from their mother's care due to lack of safe and stable housing for the children.

This family is a single parent household and the children are ages 5 and 1. Mom recently just moved to Nebraska and now has a new apartment. Mom did not have any furniture or household items when moving here.

This family is in need of any kitchen or cookware supplies such as a toaster or a microwave, a high chair and a crib for the one year old and a twin bed for the 5 year old.

With these items, mom will be able to cook healthy meals for her children in the home and the children will have a safe space to sleep.

Please, help educate a mother of four understand the impact that domestic violence can have on herself and her children, by providing her with "Why Does He Do That?" by Lundy Bancroft.

A mother on my caseload has recently obtained housing for herself and her five children, and is working hard to furnish her home prior to reunification. This family loves to spend time together, but currently has to sit on the floor in their living room when they want to watch movies or play games with each other during visits. Overnight visits with the kids will be starting shortly, and I know that they would all appreciate having a comfortable space in the living room to enjoy each other's company prior to reunification.

Both parents are working with services to help ensure that their home is safe for their children to live in. Getting them laundry soap and laundromat card would be help and help the family continuing ensuring the home stay safe for everyone.

A single mother of 4 children is needing assistance paying the last half of her rent. This mother was recently let go from her job because she's been needing to prioritize the critical needs of her children. This mother has been diligently looking for a new job but has not had any offers yet. She doesn't have many family or friends in the area to help her maintain the children's needs. This family was recently living in a hotel and does not wish to lose their apartment that they worked so hard to get to. Please, help this family remain in the comfort of their warm home so they don't have to work their way up from rock bottom again. ANY amount helps and your donation does not need to be the full amount of the request.

A mom recently requested that her son receive a bed frame for his full size bed because it has been sitting on the floor where the carpets are not clean. She also asked for a new full sized mattress for her son, if able. The mother also asked for her carpets to be cleaned as well.

Imagine finally finding the courage to leave an abusive relationship—only to have your home broken into, your every move tracked through hacked cameras, and your phone used against you by the person you fled.

This is the terrifying reality for a brave local mother and her children, who are doing everything they can to stay safe and rebuild their lives. They’ve already endured so much, and now they’re faced with the constant fear that he could find them again.

We are currently looking for assistance so we can replace her front door locks, install window locks, a sliding glass door lock, and indoor and outdoor cameras.

Please give what you can—and share. Help us protect a family that deserves safety, dignity, and the chance to breathe without fear.

Three young children (age 7, 8, and 9) were removed from their mother due to abandonment and drug use by their mother. The children have not had a stable home throughout their lives and very rarely were given new clothes. They are currently residing in a kinship foster placement and foster mom isn't able to get them shoes and clothes at the moment as she has not yet received her stipend. The Department has helped with groceries and a small donation of clothes from CFS workers. The children have utilized the Foster Care Closet as well. The little boy does not have any shoes that fit that do not have holes. The girls' clothes are either too big or too small. I am asking for $50 for each child to purchase new shoes and clothes for them.
