Decapolis

Grandparents are currently caring for 6 children in their home. They are in the process of adopting 3 of them however they are need of assistance with fans for the upcoming summer months. We all know the summer in San Antonio gets pretty brutal and they live in a older home that may not be able to keep up with the heat. 3-4 fans spread out in the home would be helpful for this family.

We have a 60 year old grandmother who is asking for a used refrigerator to help store the families food and medications. The grandmother is diabetic and take 3 forms of insulin, one type 4 times a day, one type at night, and the last for once a week. The medications that are stored take up most if not all the door space used for storage. This grandmother is trying to raise 5 grandkids, 3 girls ages 10,11, and 13, as well as 2 boys ages 4 and 9. She get no support from the biological parents and receives no child support for the kids as well. This would help save on food and medicine waste since she would have a p[lace to store all her needs without worry as to whether the items would spoil, especially as we enter the hot summer months.
