Young's Chapel Baptist Church

URGENT NEED - We have a single mom of two girls still living in a motel needing any assistance to maintain another week's stay. Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated!

Mother had leg amputaed due to illness and family is dealing with financial and emotional duress from this traumatic event. Father lost full time job as he was helping to take care of wife/mother and children during this traumatic life crisis. Father trying his best to keep food on table, children in school and manage finances as best as possible during this critical time found the family in need of major appliances such as a washer, dryer and a refrigerator. At this time the father is using coolers with ice to keep groceries cold. He is also trying his best to wash the 3year old, 3rd graders and 1st graders clothes in the sink and then hanging to dry. He is doing all this while trying to take care of his wife who just had her leg amputated. The family has been though a lot and needs help in their finanical and emotional time of need. If you can help, please do. Thank you.

Single mother with 3 teenage children with the oldest (15) being special needs (wears diapers and nonverbal) and youngest being 12 working to get better housing for herself and children after recent separation. Mother has found a place and landlord and is awaiting a confirmation. Mother has money for rent but needs assistance with the deposit as she has a lower paying wage in food service industry. The deposit is a month's rent of $895.

The Department is working with a family who is in need of a small used push lawn mower for their lawn. The family has limited income and the landlord does not provide mowing services.

The family is currently served as a parental placement in an effort to prevent the child from entering foster care. The family is limited in income and has filed for custody. The family is having financial hardship while adjusting to the additional child in their household. We are requesting funding for a $300 dollar gift card to help the family purchase groceries. If this need is met, then it will assist in giving the family time to financially adjust to the additional household member and court expense.

This family has recently lost support of one parent and they have struggled to make ends meet. There is a child in this family that has sensory issues with food, and they request assistance in the form of grocery gift cards so that they may choose foods the child will eat. There are 3 children and one parent in this household, and they have a need for assistance with groceries. This will help them as they adjust to the changes in their financial situation and family arrangement in the household.

The Department is working with a biological mother to a child in foster care. Child came into foster care, at no fault of the mother, due to death of a relative who had custody.

The room is just in need of new carpet. This is the only thing needed to complete The Department is requesting any help that can be provided.
