A single mother is working towards reunification with her two toddlers. Her front door and her chain-link gate are having issues opening and closing which is causing safety concerns for her.

This is a family we helped before with a basketball goal.

If possible, this grandmother is looking for a "scholarship/sponsor," for her grandson who she has custody of to attend Roanoke County's Basketball camp over the summer for a week. It is $275.00.

The student has never attended a "summer camp," he is hoping to work on his skills so that he can establish some positive peer relationships, make new friends, and connections.

Payments can be made directly to the program in honor of the student.

An older woman has recently taken in a small baby, and is in need of assistance with feeding and caring for the child. Due to a lack of established custody, it is difficult for the caretaker to obtain benefits for the child. By assisting now, it allows time to strengthen this placement, without the child having to enter foster care.

A grandmother caring for her three grandchildren, aged 3, 2, and 1, requires installation of two new windows in her residence, as the current windows are non-operational and pose safety concerns in the event of fire or emergency. Thank you for your assistance.

Mom has moved into a new home. During home visit it was noted that the children in the home do not have beds. Mom was informed that the children have to have beds in the home to meet their needs. Mom does not have a lot of money left due to moving into the home. DSS is asking for help with beds for the three children. Thanks

I am working with a father who is on the road to recovery and working to get his two boys back in the home. He currently does not have stable income and is in need of a refrigerator and a washing machine. Both appliances in the home are not in working order and if he receives these items, it will create a more appropriate home for his children when they return.

A father is in need of help. Two of his children were removed from the home due to the condition of the house. The roof needs to be fixed. The parent needs assistance. DSS has paid for the supplies for the roof. He also needs elements or something is wrong with the elements, or needs a new hot water heater. The hot water cuts off after 8 minutes. If someone or someone's could help with these issues, the parent would be so grateful and would allow the children to come back home and attend school again.

A single mother with four children in foster care is in need of help purchasing a bus pass for transportation to visits with the children at the DSS office. The total cost of the bus pass is $56. The bus pass would also aid her in maintaining the services on her service plan for the goal of return home.

Mom staying at Kingston Inn w/ boys & father of unborn child; $325 per week. She’s 4.5 months pregnant. No job. No transportation. Paying child support & Kingston Inn, so money is tight. She’s not receiving child support as the father of her boys is in jail. I gave her an application for SNAP & Childcare.

Mom needs diapers (size 7), wipes, baby gate, mattress (boys popped their air mattress), toys/activities for boys in limited space. She would LOVE them to each have a Leap Frog, but that’s a long shot. 😊

Single mother of child under a year-old needs financial assistance with her vehicle tags and registration. She recently purchased the vehicle and since has had to make several repairs to it as it has had several different mechanical issues. This mother is currently enrolled in a recovery court program for substance use challenges and relies heavily on having a vehicle for transportation and participation in the program. She also as previously stated has a small child so reliable and legal transportation is a must here as well. She has been able to try to manage all the repairs herself which has left her with little income. Other financial resources have been exhausted with little success. Any assistance would be appreciated.
