We have a family displaced to a hotel in the Hobby airport area. We have helped them in various ways including providing mileage reimbursement. However, 2011 Volkswagen Routan SEL has broken several times. She says it gets overheated and uses alot of oil. In addition, the battery is dead. We are not sure exactly what is needed.

The parent was able to replace her battery yesterday. She put oil in it, but it all leaked out. She was able to call a mobile mechanic, and he told her the part that she needed to order from Amazon. It will be here tomorrow. He wants $450.00 for labor. Our new request is someone to put the part on or an affordable resource.

The foster mom reached out to the case manager because the backyard porch has been collecting water when it rains. The family isn’t sure how to fix it but they’d like to find a solution so the foster child can keep playing with their toys outside without any issues.

The family is requesting assistance with repairing their porch; they are thinking about either a deck or raising the concrete but will be thankful for anything.

THIS AMOUNT IS UNKNOWN at this time. If several folks pitch in together, for labor and wood, etc., then the amount could be "any amount." Please understand that I am putting this value in so everyone will read this but it could be $100-$1,000+. Thank you for any leads or information you can provide.

The family just had a newborn. The family is low-income, and they do not have furniture in the home. They also could benefit from baby formula since they just gave birth to a newborn. They currently have safety monitors who have to live in the home, but they do not have beds for them.

A single mother of two teenage sons is seeking financial assistance to cover the costs associated with securing a new apartment. The necessary expenses include an application fee of $35 and a deposit of $250. The family was recently evicted and is currently staying in a hotel. The mother is employed and expects to receive her paycheck on Friday evening. In addition to the application fee and deposit, she requires $149.30 to cover two nights of hotel accommodations. With this support, she hopes to move into the new apartment by Monday. The new residence is more affordable than their previous dwelling, making it a sustainable housing option. Assistance in this matter would provide the family with a safe and stable place to stay during this transitional period.

A family with a single mother and three children has experienced homelessness over the past year. Their homelessness has included periods living in a hotel, staying with friends, and residing in a shelter. The mother was able to secure employment and save enough funds for a deposit and two months' rent to move into an apartment. After significant sacrifices, the family is now living in their own apartment; however, due to financial constraints, they have limited resources. The family is in need of furniture such as three bed frames with mattresses, a couch or sofa, pots and pans for cooking, and a kitchen table. They also need clothing, as they were only able to bring a limited amount of their belongings. The family's sizes are as follows:

• Mother wears a size 14 in pants, a large in women's tops, and 8.5 in women’s shoes.
• Daughter wears a size 6/7 in junior pants, medium in women's tops, and size 9 in women’s shoes.
• Youngest daughter wears a size 8T (children’s) in tops and bottoms, and size 1-2 in children's shoes. This support would help this family finally move past their difficult circumstances and transform their new apartment into a true home.

The family is currently residing in a trailer home and is needing a few items like a refrigerator, stove, tiles for the floor, and white seal. The family refrigerator and stove are broken.

The foster parent has not asked for any assistance with anything and has bought the necessities for the 1-year-old child. He is a big boy for his age, and she is hoping that she can get assistance with some Pampers, Swaddlers diapers, size 7. It is expensive, especially in this economy and she is a sole parent who has to pay all of the expenses. This little boy is very bonded with his foster parent, and she has sacrificed a lot to take him in and to show him what it truly means to be loved.
