Please consider helping this family be able to stay together. This aunt stepped up to take on the care of her twin niece and nephews who are two years old, while also being a single mother of two young boys under the age of four. This aunt relies heavily on her closenet for support however they all struggle with very low income. This aunt is in desperate need of household items to work on the clutter and lack of space in her home. The family would also benefit from new toddler mattresses and beds for the twins. The following list of items would help the family gratefully.
* Hangers (toddler and regular)
* Storage drawers/totes/bins
*Fabric drawers
*Twin beds/mattresses
*cleaning supplies
This mother just reunified with her 2 year old boy, but unfortunately was also given less hours at work these past two weeks and is unable to cover the entire portion of her rent. Her rent is due Sunday Oct 1st, and is requesting $130 to help cover the rest that she's unable to pay. Mom has worked extremely hard this entire past year to resolve her substance use and mental health concerns, and is finally in a really stable place/head space. Any help is extremely appreciated!
Mother and family have recently moved to a new home. Mother is not currently working and has no money to buy a bed a twin bed and mattress for her 5 year old. Mother is also not able to buy a couch for her 15-year-old because of his disability he prefers to sleep on a couch. Family is also struggling to purchase a dinning room table and a microwave.
Any form of payment to help the family purchase a mattress and a bed frame and couch and dining room table to help the child by providing a safe sleeping environment to accommodate their needs. .
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing on behalf of a dedicated foster family who has generously opened their home to a teenage boy under their care. In their admirable commitment to providing a safe and nurturing environment, the foster family has also taken in all four of the teenager's siblings and has children of their own.
The foster family has a hectic schedule in caring for seven children in total. We have encountered a unique transportation challenge for this teenage boy. He currently attends an alternative school that does not have the means to provide transportation services. As a result, the foster family is responsible for ensuring he can get to and from school daily. Considering the circumstances, we are reaching out to request support in acquiring an electric scooter for the teenage boy. Having access to an electric scooter would greatly ease the burden on the foster family and enable the teenager to attend school consistently and punctually. This, in turn, will significantly contribute to his educational progress and overall well-being.
We understand the importance of ensuring the teenage boy has a reliable means of transportation to continue his education. Your assistance in this matter would make a significant difference in his life and provide vital support to the foster family. We are deeply grateful for your consideration of this request, and we look forward to your response.
Thank you for your continued dedication to the well-being

We have a used electric scooter we are willing to donate. However, we are not sure on its battery range or how far the boy needs to travel. If someone wants to connect with us so that he could test it and see if it will work, please let us know. Thanks! Suzie
An adoptive resource is trying to help provide a child in foster care braces that the child needs. Braces are not covered under insurance and what the child needs is estimated at $6,000. Any financial assistance would be greatly appreciated to help the family.

This family of 7 is needing help to pay for rent for this month. The uncle has become the relative placement of his 14 year old niece last month. The uncle has been looking for a more stable job to support his family and he is needing help to cover part of their rent ($692.15). They are also asking for rug for their living room. The flooring is tile and they want a rug for the children to be able to play with their toys on instead of the cold floor. They aren't asking for a particular size, but a 4' x 4' or 5' x 5' would be the size they need. This family will appreciate any and all help they are able to get.

We are asking for help with rent to stabilize a family to prevent two children from coming into care. Mom works a full time job and is helping her two older children who are in college. Mom also has two younger children that are in the home that she provides care to. Last month, DCF redirected the SSID payments for the teenager that was taken into care. This caused mom to have to work overtime to try to make sure she was able to make rent. However, she has voiced that despite taking the max amount of shifts and working another part time job, she is unable to make her rent for this month and will become homeless with the two other children. Mom does have a plan moving forward but is struggling to make up for the last minute loss of the SSID payments. We are asking for any help we can to either fully cover, or go towards so we can make sure we prevent mom and the two younger children going homeless.
Hello, I have a child who is developmentally behind and in a residential setting where she does not get many new items. Myself, the case manager and the staff at the residential program were exploring ways to motivate her to meet her treatment goals, as well as reward her. She has recently been asking every adult she is around if they have any Monster High or Rainbow High Dolls that she can take back to the facility. We are thinking if we can get her one or two of these dolls, it could help her overall progress in the program.
