A kinship provider is in need of an Uber gift card as she has been responsible for providing transportation for the foster youth and the youth's baby. The youth and baby go to a school in Kansas City, MO because they have a daycare program in the school for students who are parents. Options for teen students are very limited on the KS side so this has been the best option even though the school is 17 miles away from the home. The provider has either been taking both youth to school or ordering and Uber each day since school has started two weeks ago in order to make sure the youth is attending classes so she can graduate on time this year. The school in Missouri is working to get a ride share program set up for the youth but at this time, the family is responsible for transportation despite having limited availability as her work schedule is very inflexible. We would like to provide financial support to her through an Uber gift card as she has put so much effort into making sure the youth attends school and gets her degree which can be especially difficult as a teen parent. We would be very grateful for any amount of help in the form of gift cards. Thank you!

Thank you for considering and if any questions feel free to reach out.

Foster family in need of financial assistance. The family was financially struggling before taking a relative foster child into care. The family graciously accepted the child into their home, creating a more significant financial burden. This placement forfeited some work hours to care for the child, placing them even further behind on some of their utilities. The family is working towards obtaining financial education and budgeting to help get them on the right track, but some financial assistance to help keep their utilities on would help to preserve this kinship family foster home. Could you possibly help provide some cash assistance directly to a utility company? Thank you for your consideration.

Hello, I am an Intensive in-home specialist with Cornerstones of Care, and I am currently working with a young pregnant mother (age 23) and her four young children (ages 4, 3, 2, 1 and unborn child). The family is in need of a pack-n-play for the baby who may be here in the next couple of weeks. Helping family meet this need will ensure that baby has a safe space to sleep and help family practice safe sleep habits. In addition, family could use two baby gates to help keep children out of the kitchen and bathroom. As the children are very young and mobile and like to climb on things. Mother has shared that the two young's children often climb into bathtub and turn on water. This could be very dangerous, as children could unintentionally slip and hurt themselves and or turn on hot water and get burn. A baby gate will help keep children out of the restroom. Lastly, mom has asked, if possible, to get a baby tub for the new baby. She shares that, this is one of the last items she needs for baby and would appreciate the help as her financial situation does not allow her to buy this items. The mother does work however, does not currently have the financial means to buy these items. Any help is very much appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read the request and for all that you do. Items needed Pack and play (mom is having a boy) baby bath two baby gates

Hello there, we just placed a fifteen-year-old child with her great grandmother. The great grandmother is on a fixed income and is in need of a twin mattress and box spring for the child that we placed with her today. The great grandmother is also caring for another grandchild that she has adopted. The grandmother has had the child that we placed with her today since she was a baby. We are hoping that someone could possibly donate this item and deliver it to her home. She lives on the 5th floor at an apartment building, and it would be difficult for her financially as well as physically to get. Thank you so much for your consideration.
