Mother is receiving family reunification services through the Department of Children and Family Services. Mother has made substantial progress in addressing her issues and has complied with all of DCFS and Court ordered treatment plan. However, mother does not have stable housing. She reports she is temporarily staying with different friends but mother states their home is not able to accommodate her elementary and middle school age children. Mother does not have the adequate housing nor the resources to secure alternate housing to provide to her children so that she may safely care for them, if children are return to her care. Mother is undocumented. Court has granted overnight visits and the visits may take place in a hotel. The mother is asking if anyone can provide her with a gift card to be use to pay for a hotel. Mother has to show that she is able to care for her children during her visits. Mother would greatly appreciated and the children.

We are requesting support for this mother who has three children ages 3, 6 and 8. One of mother's children has a severe immune deficiency disease that is incurable. Because of this the children are all home-schooled to prevent chance of bringing home germs. The children would benefit greatly from a set of bunk beds. This is a single mother and she is indigent. The children currently have cot type bed and both are broken. The 3 year-old sleeps with mother and she has been told this is a health issue. I have looked on the Wal-Mart website and found two affordable options. A family member has agreed to assist with the mattresses if we can get the frame donated. Any assistance is appreciated.

Please help us preserve a Kinship placement. A grandmother has cared for her granddaughter for over 3 years, but is now struggling financially. She needs assistance getting tires and a wheel alignment for her car which is her only means of transportation. Grandmother uses her vehicle to safely transport her granddaughter to and from school, therapy appointments and other court orders several times a week.

The family lives in orange county and has to travel all over for services / court orders, including to LA County. Grandmother is retired and has a fixed income. She responsibly uses her income to pay for essentials for the minor and funds extracurricular activities for her granddaughter to participate in during their visits. Over the past 3 years, grandmother has successfully focused her resources on caring for her granddaughter.

Recently the minor’s therapist recommended the minor to be enrolled in a school program that provides therapeutic services for children on the Autism spectrum. Grandmother is required to pay a portion of the weekly tuition, and this additional cost has limited Grandmother's ability to address this need without assistance. The cost of the new tires is $790.30, and the wheel alignment is $129.99 for a total cost of $920.29 that can be paid directly to the vendor. Your assistance with helping grandmother replace her car tires so that she could continue providing a safe environment to her grandchild would be greatly appreciated.

I am working with a family of six—a mother and her five young children—who are in need of support. Family has experienced homelessness and has been able to overcome many challenges. As the children have grown, the limited space in their home has made it difficult to provide each child with a safe and comfortable place to sleep. To help meet her family’s needs, the mother is seeking assistance with obtaining a bunk bed.

This furniture would significantly improve the children’s living conditions by creating more space and ensuring a safer sleep environment. Due to ongoing financial hardship, the mother is unable to afford this on her own. Providing this support would strengthen her ability to care for her children and offer her greater peace of mind as she continues to meet their daily needs. The cost of the bunk bed is 169.99 with a shipping fee of 79.99=249.98. Go To Link Along with mattress Twin XL over Twin XL Go To Link

Single mother who is living in a motel is in need of a pack and play for nine month old baby. This will provide a safe place for baby to sleep and play when needed. Mother is out of work and needs assistance with this item to show the social worker mother can keep the child safe. Thank you.

Single mother currently has an open DCFS case related to domestic violence. At this time, the mother has her child in her care and is actively participating in all required case plan services. She is currently unemployed and is in urgent need of assistance with transportation. Specifically, she requires a gas card to help her transport her child to court-mandated visits with the father. Due to the child’s autism diagnosis, public transportation is not a viable option for these visits. Providing her with a gas card would greatly ease her stress, support her compliance with the case plan, and allow her to better focus on both her services and reassuring her child during these challenging times.

The mother and her child (with developmental disabilities) has experience Domestic Violence and had to relocate into the maternal grandparents' apartment. During this time, the mother has been unable to work and has had many setbacks and is working through them, with the help of her therapist. The mother has reported that she is striving to do better and wants to be a better person for her children. The family is in need of a sofa bed and twin bed due to their small space at the maternal Grandparents' home. (amazon items were found at a good price, prices listed below include taxes.)

I am reaching out on behalf of a single mother with six children who is currently in need of support. The family was recently displaced from a room they had been renting and, thankfully, has now secured their own apartment. However, they are in need of essential household items to help make their new space livable and comfortable. Some of the immediate needs include: Microwave, Dining table, Pots and pans, Plates and utensils, Towels and blankets. Any assistance would be deeply appreciated and would make a meaningful difference for this resilient family as they work to rebuild their lives. Thank you for your time and consideration.

We are seeking urgent community support for a mother and her 7-year-old daughter who are currently in need of safe and stable housing. The mother is a victim of domestic violence and is without any local family support. She is currently awaiting a court hearing scheduled for May 9th, which will determine whether she is permitted to relocate to Georgia to be with extended family.

At this time, the mother has exhausted her financial resources and is unable to secure housing on her own. We are asking for assistance to help cover the cost of a 14-day hotel stay, totaling approximately $141 per night, to ensure she and her daughter have a safe place to stay during this transitional period.

Total estimated need: $1,974 (14 nights at $141/night)

Any support—whether financial contributions, hotel vouchers, or referrals to community resources—is deeply appreciated. Your generosity can provide stability and hope to a family in urgent need.
