This family consists of a mother, step-father, and 4 year old child. Step-father just started a new job but has not been paid yet. Mother lost her job about a month ago and is still looking for a new one. The child is special needs with some challenging behaviors and is in services, which can make it hard for the family to maintain steady employment when having to take time off for service appointments and such. Mother is currently pregnant with her second child and has some of her own mental health challenges and is under a lot of stress. The family is behind on rent and they need to catch up to prevent possible eviction. This request of one months rent would be greatly appreciated to help the family maintain their housing and reduce some stress so they can focus on maintaining the child's special needs as well.

I am working with a newly single father who had not been able to work due to health conditions from this past year and their household relied on the mother's income. He attempted to get a job in the past few months but his arthritis was so debilitating that he was unable to continue working with that family member. With the side jobs he had been trying to work he was paying his landlord lot rent little by little. With the mother out of the home he is currently working on getting benefits and the house stabilized. This past week he was placed responsible for his other 2 children while their mother is incarcerated for a short length of time. His son is out of the school district that he lives in, therefore he would need to drive him back and forth to either the school or the maternal grandmothers' home to get on the bus. We're asking for assistance with paying some of his lot rent down and getting a gas card.

Roanoke City DSS gained custody of a 16 year old female due to truancy. This has been an ongoing concern for this youth, as she was 100% truant for the 2023-2024 academic year. She is now placed in a therapeutic foster home in Lynchburg and attending school. woohoo!!! The agency has scheduled family visits to occur in Lynchburg, so the youth does not miss school. This is due to her being behind academically. This youth is bonded to her family and the Department would like to ensure that in-person visits can occur. The biological mother is willing to drive to Lynchburg on a bi-weekly basis for family time, but is not able to afford gas. Our agency is asking for either one or multiple churches to meet a need of gas gift cards. The visit is located 49.7 miles away. If this need can be met, the gift cards can be dropped off at Roanoke City DSS or provided to the family directly. I, Shanae Vaughn, am the ongoing worker for this family. Please give me a call at(###) ###-####, so i can assist in this matter. Thanks :)

Hello! I am currently working with a mother of two children, ages 11 and 12, who has been homeless for nearly a year. The twelve year old male was admitted to a residential program located in Northern Virginia in August due to extreme negative behaviors. The mother would like to be able to facilitate face to face visits at the facility, but is in need of financial support to have vehicle repairs completed. She has obtained a mechanic's estimate for work needed, and we are requesting any support possible to help her regain reliable transportation. She desperately misses her son, and visiting when possible is essential to the success of his treatment goals to eventually reunite with his family. Any support is greatly appreciated!

I am currently working with a family who is in need of financial assistance. This family consists of a single mom, who has one child in the home who is 16. Mom lost her 19 year old son in July to suicide, and has struggled to catch up with bills. The 16 year old is currently living with his father, but until mom can have her heat back on the child is not allowed to come to her home. This family has no history with the department, mom is employed and is trying her best to receive help so her bill can get caught up. Mom is attempting to work with community resources; however, they are only willing to pay her bill if it is under $300. Due to the department's allotted amount of Money, we are unable to help with the total amount of the bill. I am placing this request on here to see if anyone would be willing to help this mom in anyway. Anything helps and she would be beyond grateful for any amount of help given! Please send prayers and good thoughts towards this family!

I am currently working with a single mother of four children. Over the past year this mother has reached out for significant needs as she is struggling to make ends meet and provide for her young children. She currently reports that she feels she is worse off now than she was this time last year. The school reports that the children have lice so badly they are miserable. The school is trying to remedy the lice in order to keep them in school and the mother said she has tried things at home but it hasn't worked so far. Additionally, the mother reports that her youngest child has run out of pull-ups and they are in need of some laundry detergent, and hygiene products. This request is for two lice kits, some pull-ups size 6, and hygiene products like soap and shampoo and laundry detergent.

The mother is a single mother with four children. There were some issues with the home, and the mother had to throw a lot of items away.

The mother has worked hard to improve the condition of the home; however, financially she is unable to purchase the above requested items. There are three male children, and one female child, and each of the children need bedding. Any assistance would be so helpful for the family, and much appreciated.

Mom has requested a full size bed frame, box spring and sheets for her child. Mom would also like to request 1-2 dressers for the child. The family already has a mattress.

The family has had issues paying their electric bill. Mom was going to get the child a new bed frame but instead had to put that money towards the electric bill. Contact worker for more information.

Hello, I have a family on my caseload who has one child on a trial home placement, but because her daughter is not officially in her custody her section 8 voucher does not recognize her being on the lease in the home. This has also caused the Landlord to increase the rent in this mother's home, and with the increase she was not able to budget everything. She is disputing the increase, however she still has to make payments so she stays up to date. She is needing help to get caught up so she can keep the home, and she is able to keep her daughter in the trial home. We also want to transition the other child home as well. I am requesting any help possible to help her to get caught up on her back rent. Updated on November 14, 2023 by an Agency Worker
I would like to send an update asking if anyone can even donate a little bit, this family needs this help, and her section 8 is going to reset in December. At court today the payment was recognized that she will still owe this money due to the way things happened.

I have a family who is in need of assistance with a downpayment for a car as they have no transportation, for assistance with an electric heater, and for assistance with a back porch as their back door has no porch or stairs leading out of the trailer.
