Recently boys dad has been picked up on a warrant and they are unable to locate their mom. Their older sister has taken them in and is barely making it herself as she is trying to support herself and her child. She does not have the means to provide clothing for her brothers and has been buying them things as she can. The boys have very little to wear. The boys wear men's size medium and large and are asking for solid colored t-shirts, a pair of 14/16 and a pr of 16/20 jeans, medium & large athletic shorts, pkg of boxer briefs for each, pkg of white socks for each and 2 plastic drawers for them to put their items in. Anything that is donated will be a great help and appreciated, thank you.

These Kin Providers are just family friends that have unexpectedly taken in 2 young boys so that they did not need to go into the foster care system. This family is very low income and with the sudden change they needed to get sleeping arrangements and other expenses in order, This family needs help with formula ASAP until they can get WIC in place. The boys use the Enfamil Gentle Ease Purple Container formula.

The family has 3 young children. Two of the boys like to open the door to the apartment and go outside, which causes safety concerns for them. Additionally, they have a 4 month old that will be active in the coming months and they would like a way to prevent the older siblings from opening the door so they are hoping to get some door knob covers to aid in that effort. They would also benefit from additional "baby-proofing" items such as cabinet locks and any additional items that would help provide a safe environment for the baby as well as the other children in the home. Please see the link below for an idea of a couple items that would be beneficial. Thank you! Door Knob Covers: Cabinet Locks: Drawer Locks:

Help the 4 children of a single mother who recently arrived in Colorado to break free of an abusive relationship of nine years stay housed avoiding eviction for this month until family can move to some other type of supportive programming. Parent in need of financial funding to stay housed, served 10 day notice on 5/16/22. This will allow the parent to look for supportive programs for housing.

A single foster mom just said yes to her first placement, a 3 year old little boy. She is requesting a Rocking Chair or Glider to help with bed time and rest for this sweet boy. She is not picky on what or where it comes from but gave this as an example of something that would work:

The children were moved out of their father's home and he will not provide them with any information so that they can activate their phones under their mom's name. The two kids are teenagers and living with their grandmother. It would be beneficial for them to have their phones so that they can stay in communication with their grandmother and mom who lives out of state. New phones would help significantly so mother can put the phone plans under her name.

We are working with a youth who is graduating high school this week! She has been in foster care for several years and is about to graduate HS a year early...awesome!! She will not be returning home to her family and doesn't have much support. She has been working a lot to earn money to pay for her own graduation party. She will be going to college and will move into her dorm room on June 1st. She still has a few items on her gift registry that she needs as she transitions on her own. Could you take a look at the registry and see if you can provide any of the items remaining? We would be so appreciate of any support you can provide for her. Gift cards are also welcomed so she can purchase what she needs. Items purchased off the the gift registry are delivered directly to her. And any gift cards can be delivered to me directly so I can provide them to her.

This family is currently in between health insurances and does not start on the new insurance until June due to the mother starting a new job and the daughter needs her medication but they are unable to afford the cost for out-of-pocket pay. The child needs to be seen by her primary care doctor to get the prescription renewed and then she has two medications to get filled.

Help a single mother in-between jobs maintain a safe and clean environment for her young child who is crawling and exploring her home environment with her hands and mouth. Mother is asking for supplies to maintain the cleanliness of the home and their own personal hygiene. Request for dish soap, laundry detergent, baby wash/shampoo, body wash, toothpaste for adult and child, toilet bowl cleaner, paper towel, toilet paper, all purpose household cleaner and cleaning cloths.

This teen lost his dad in February due to health issues. His family is struggling financially as dad was the main source of income for the family. He is currently staying with a friend's family and is wanting to save up to buy a car and is requesting work pants (size 32x34) for job interviews. He is also in need of new shoes (size 10), pants (athletic please, size large), shorts (large), and shirts (medium) that he can wear to school and to work. Thank you for considering helping this young man. If finding specific clothing items is difficult, I believe a gift card to some type of sporting goods store that sells athletic clothing/shoes would be appreciated as well.

This mom is from Honduras. She moved here for a better life and had her two sons here, one is 5 years old and the other 15 months. The 15 month old was born with lung problems including asthma and had eating problems and they were at Children’s for several months after he was born. She is now struggling as a single parent, is not documented and is not housed, living with a friend. She works minimally to provide for the baby’s medical needs and works only when she can for $12.00 an hour (way under the living min wage) and is doing the best she can with what she has. She came to us asking for support and resources and help with housing. She is struggling with basic needs for the children and needed a car seat for the baby. Reference link is below. Thank you for your consideration!

Place Bridge Academy (PBA) is a refugee school in the Denver Public School district located at 7125 Cherry Creek North Drive, Denver, CO 80224. We have over 850 students in ECE through 8th grade. The school is a designated Newcomer center. Only 15% of our students come to us with English as their primary language. Our students and families come from 50 different countries and speak 65 different languages. Additionally, 96% of our families qualify for free and reduced lunch. We are in the process of making our school lobby more welcoming as such would highly request your assistance in accomplishing our goal. We want to be able to teach our families how to register their children for school while providing a safe and comfortable environment. Being a refugee school, and with the majority of our families qualifying for free and reduced lunch, we do not have a functioning parent body/group that would contribute to funding needs. Consequently, we would appreciate your support in helping us redo our lobby to make our families feel at home, comfortable and welcomed in their children's school. The links below are pictures and cost of the coffee cart and the floor protectors we are requesting.
