A single mother is urgently in need of assistance with her car payment, currently past due by one month in the amount of $300. She has received a final notice and is at immediate risk of repossession. The vehicle is her only means of transportation, essential for both her current DoorDash income and her ongoing efforts to build a more stable future. She is actively working with LINC on employment opportunities and has been regularly attending job fairs. She just began a six-month Medical Assistant program, a critical step toward long-term self-sufficiency and career advancement. Maintaining her vehicle is vital not only to her current income but also to her ability to attend classes and pursue a better future for herself and her family. She has expressed full confidence in her ability to stay current on future payments once this overdue balance is resolved.

Your support would provide immediate relief and ensure she can continue progressing toward financial independence.

As a case manager from KVC Permanency, a mother whose child recently came into care has reached out to me regarding a water bill that DCCCA previously said that they would help this mother pay.

I have a family at our school who is having trouble making ends meet this month.

Cass County Prevention is currently working with a mother and her paramour in regard to their rent and other utilities. The rent is overdue at the present time and the family has only been able to pay $500 so far this month. The paramour's next check is only estimated to be around $300, and the mother is attempting to locate employment; however, her application for childcare was denied so this makes it harder. Furthermore, the mother indicated their water was turned off today, April 24th due to the bill being past due. The remaining amount of rent is $700 for this month and in order to get the water turned back on it will cost $234.96. If the rent is not paid by next week, the landlord is talking about not allowing them to stay any longer in the home and terminating their lease. The mother is worried for her children, as she does not want them to be without working utilities in the home, nor to have to uproot them from their current schools.

This family has requested assistance with before and after school care for the remainder of the school year. This child thrives on consistent routine and is worried if they are not able to continue with this routine for the remainder of the school year it will cause disruption to the child's behavior progress.

Hello, I have a relative placement that needs our help with a dresser, a twin bed frame and an outdoor water activity table. The only requirement for the dresser is to please keep in mind this dresser will be in a bedroom with 4 children under the age of 8. :-) This relative placement is simply amazing and needs our help.
