Parents recently had a child a couple weeks ago and are young. The family is looking to get a locked box for safety in the home for their newborn. They do not have a lot of money and are looking to get some help with this.

This foster mom has moved mountains to provide a home for three teens. Now she is opening her home to another hard-to-place teenager. As she prepares for this teen, he will need to share home with another teen in the home. In order for both teen boys to share a room she is in need of two twin beds. Will you come beside this foster mom by providing a mattress to call theirs that will fit in the bedroom they will share?

Single mother of young child struggling with the family's transportation. Mother's car was repossessed. Mother unable to find at home work and hoping to request from the community of any donated cars she can utilize. Mother is very eager to return to work and attempted to manage without a car. However, she is struggling with securing employment without a working car.

The mother is struggling with finding a job, and recently cracked her phone screen which is causing it to not work all the time. The mother is hoping to get a new phone preferably an iPhone but she is okay with whatever is possible. I have looked online and there are iPhone 14e for 300 that have been used and new is $600. Any model would be fine. It could even be older than an iPhone 14e.

A mother who is working towards reunification with her child and having family time with her 1 year old daughter in her home is needing a large standing baby gate and cabinet locks to ensure that her home is baby proofed and safe for child to be there.

This request is to help support a mother of 3 children by providing mattresses to provide adequate sleeping areas for the children. There are three children in this home, and all children are needing an individual mattress/sleeping area.

Any consideration for part of this request or all of it is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Foster Youth recently graduated high school and is enrolled in a auto mechanics trade school in Denver. He will be emancipating to an apartment on his own and is in need some extra items for living on his own. He is still in need of a pots and pan, plates, silverware, vacuum(BISSELL Featherweight Stick Vacuum Cleaner type), broom, mop, and diffuser or a purifier. He would also like to have a bean bag lounge item for his tv area if possible.

A youth that I am working with is doing everything in his power to be able to move back home with his mother. Due to his mother having a recent kidney transplant, finances are tight. I would love to be able to provide his mother with gift cards of any amount to Wal Mart and/or King Soopers to help her with buying him clothes, bedding, shoes, and supplies to have for him when he moves back home. Thank you for your consideration!

A 14 year old boy was recently placed with his grandmother. Grandmother was recently let go from her long term employment and has struggled to get past the second (in person) interview. She was not planning to retire for a few more years and has been living on her savings, but it was important to her that her grandson not be placed in foster care. Grandmother gardens and cans much of her own food and tries to be frugal, but this placement was not expected. Grandmother would appreciate assistance with groceries as feeding a teen age boy was not in her budget.

The family began with the Department a few months ago. The teenage girls on this case have had an enormous amount of trauma with their father passing away from substance use, mother abandoned them and is using substances, and their grandma recently passed away in August. They do not have any other family to take them. The grandpa has decided he no longer can take care of the children, and the girls have entered the foster care system yet again. The girls have struggled with another change but continue to try and be positive. With their current placement, they share a bunk bed with worn down mattresses. I am requesting two new small mattresses that will help them become more comfortable at their foster home.

This family has been working with the Department for a few months. Mom has been doing everything she needs to help her get back on track, but she has suffered some medical issues including vomiting spells, nerve issues with her back, and extreme fatigue. She continues to make all of her appointments despite her discomfort but now faces houses struggles when her apartment fell through, she lost her job and is worried about being homeless now. Upon meeting with her, she had very little food and was not eating consistently due to her struggles. This mom continues to work hard despite all of her setbacks but could use help with groceries for this month as she scrambles for a new home.
