Colonial Presbyterian Church

The affected family is a five-member family that shares ICWA tribes and includes three young children, a mother, and a father. They were placed in foster care because of the condition of the house, which included new flooring due to pipe issues being clogged up and damaging the floors.. Any aid from people, organizations, or churches in offering free flooring services or helping to cover the cost would be greatly appreciated, as parents are unable to pay for the estimate quotes.

Greetings, I am reaching out on behalf of one of my wonderful foster children. I humbly request your support in assisting a full-size bed, mattress and bedding for a child in our community who is in need of an upgraded bed now that she is getting bigger and is growing out of her current space. If you are able to contribute, your generosity will make a significant difference. Thank you for considering this request.

There’s single mother with a 16 your old son in jeopardy of being evicted. She is recently divorced and has had to file for bankruptcy. Over the past few months maintaining the household had become more difficult. She received an eviction notice and is facing that notice being enforced next week, if she cannot pay $2257.

We have a family who is really struggling. There are 4 children in the home all middle school aged and younger. They are requesting assistance with their electric bill that way they can still cover their other bills. The full amount for their electric bill is 310.54. However, anything would help them to get back on their feet. They have fallen behind on their phone bill and rent as well. If they received assistance with their electric bill, they could cover their other bills without having to prioritize any of them over the others. Thank you!

6 year old girl in need of items for an upcoming trip to Texas for her brother's surgery. Her brother has a genetic medical condition and is going to have surgery in Austin, TX in June on his jaw/face for reconstruction and possible tracheotomy removal. The family will be driving to Austin and renting a place to stay for several weeks. The family is hoping to gather items to help their child manage the long drive as well as the many hours she will spend at the hospital with her brother. Items that might be helpful would be coloring books, drawing supplies, crayons, markers, colored pencils, small lego sets, medical play kit (she wants to be a doctor) and she loves mermaids and unicorns. This family would be very appreciative of any help that could be provided.

A young mother has escaped a domestic violence situation with the father of her baby, the baby has recently come into care. The baby is placed with a kinship provider; the mother is working two jobs and providing for her baby, although the baby is not in her home currently. Please consider donating an Uber gift card to assist this mother with visiting her daughter.

This family is needing assistance with half of their rent. Their 21 year-old son was recently killed in an accident and their 19-year-old daughter who is pregnant is being induced due to the stress of losing her brother. Her younger son is currently permanently disabled. Mother has been unable to work as she has been making arrangements for her son's burial and her the birth of her daughter's child. Mother was unable to cover the entire month's rent because she paid for the burial of her son. There are three other younger children in the home. Any assistance to help this family would be very much appreciated. Thank you for your consideration.

A single mother and two female toddlers ages 2 and 4 are looking to move into a new home in a safer neighborhood than where they are currently residing. The mother has worked very hard in maintaining employment and even purchased a vehicle to help her transport her children to daycare and maintain her girls' relationship to their biological father. The mother has asked for assistance in a first-month's deposit to move out in June as her lease is ending the end of May. She is needing the community's help in this matter to ensure safer and better lives for her two little girls. Any amount would significantly help this family, as they are also very close to being released of jurisdiction and reunifying.

I am reaching out to request support on behalf of a single mother in our community who is in need of a queen-sized mattress. This hardworking mom is raising two young children and doing her best to provide a safe and stable environment for her family. Currently, she is without a proper bed and has been sleeping on the floor or couch to ensure her children are as comfortable as possible. A queen mattress would give her the opportunity to get the rest she truly deserves and continue caring for her children with the strength and energy they depend on. A donated mattress would be more than just a piece of furniture—it would represent dignity, comfort, and care for a mother doing everything she can for her family under difficult circumstances. Thank you so much for considering this request. If needed, I can help arrange pickup or delivery.

This is a single parent home. Mom is currently unemployed and family is making ends meet off of social security disability benefits. Family is functioning within poverty. One of the children in the home has a high level of medical needs with some medical equipment that requires electricity to function (suctioning and feeding pump). This mother is facing shut off notice with Evergy and her bill is currently $1,02.09. Any amount will help. This would truly be a blessing. Thank you so much for considering.

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to kindly request support in acquiring a small stand-up refrigerator for the community pantry I oversee. Our pantry serves as a vital resource for many residents, and we strive to provide not only shelf-stable items but also fresh, nutritious options. Unfortunately, without proper refrigeration, we are currently limited in our ability to offer perishable foods like fresh fruits and vegetables—items that are both highly requested and essential to a balanced diet. A small refrigerator (as we do not have a lot of space to work with) would allow us to accept and safely store produce donations, reduce waste, and increase access to healthier food choices for individuals and families who rely on our services. This addition would greatly enhance our ability to support the well-being of the community in a more sustainable and impactful way. Thank you for considering this request. Please let me know if you need any additional information. I would be happy to provide details or coordinate further.

A child has had lice for about two months now. She has missed 12 days of school and is now missing end of year testing. Her guardian has not been able to contain the lice with over-the-counter products, and she is in need of professional treatment. I have located a salon in the area that is able to provide services at a discounted rate so that she does not miss any more school. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. If you are able to assist, please reach out to me and I will provide the information for the salon where gift certificate can be purchased.
