Family is in need of one full mattress and one twin mattress. This family has now taken 5 children into their home as a kinship foster placement in the past ten months to avoid those children from being placed in traditional foster care, which brings the total amount of children they are financially providing 100% for to 6. They have been able to secure most items for the children including bed frames, but they are not able to afford new mattresses for the two children who were placed in their home two weeks ago.

I am working with a dedicated young father who is working hard to reunite with his two sons. He recently began a new job and is taking positive steps forward, but he's facing challenges covering the cost of fuel for the 6-hour round trip drive to visit them during Family Time. Despite the distance and financial strain, he remains committed to rebuilding his relationship with his children by making the drive each week. Providing any assistance with his travel expenses will help preserve his relationship with his children and significantly enhance his chances for a timely and successful child reunification

Hello! We are looking for a little help for a father that has successfully reunified with his children. This dad has really gone above and beyond to ensure his children were returned, and issues were corrected. There were some issues at reunification that actually resulted in the kids being returned about 3 weeks ahead of schedule. Dad needs a little help meeting the financial needs a little early. We are asking for a lawn mower any in working order will help! His yard is not large so a push mower is much appreciated. Shortly after the children were returned his clothes dryer bit the dust. We are asking for an electric clothes dryer in working condition if possible. Any help is appreciated!

This kinship family would like to send the two teenagers in the home to church camp this summer. This camp offers a week long camp near the family's home where the teenagers could go for some encouragement and fun. The children have been through a lot this year and have recently started to act out. The foster parents feel it would be beneficial for the teens to be around their peers in a Christian environment.
