The case came to DCFS attention due to boyfriend’s brother sexually abusing one of the kids. Mother and children were court ordered to move to grandmother’s home in Anaheim. This caused a lot of distress for mom since the home was not suited for a family of 4 and the 4 of them slept on the couch and floor. The mother and grandmother's relationship is not good, so mother's partner was able to get a place in San Bernardino for them. The family currently has been on a tight budget for rent and food, due to using monies to relocate. Also certain services have not transferred from LA County to San Bernardino County. The DPSS case is still not fully transferred over to SB county yet so mother has no income of food support yet. The mother wants to work but she reports her current mental state and anxiety is not stable enough. Financially the family is struggling, and the social worker has exhausted all resources and has been denied since the children are home with their parent. Grocery assistance is needed due for the family. Daily the mother looks for deals of the day to feed the family. They are also in need of a gas card to assist them due to 1 child's therapy services still being in Fullerton. Mother also has to drug test as well, and the closest testing site is in Pomona. DCFS has requested case to be transferred to be SB County so family can receive proper services, but Court keeps extending court date.

I am reaching out on behalf of a single mother with six children who is currently in need of support. The family was recently displaced from a room they had been renting and, thankfully, has now secured their own apartment. However, they are in need of essential household items to help make their new space livable and comfortable. Some of the immediate needs include: Microwave, Dining table, Pots and pans, Plates and utensils, Towels and blankets. Any assistance would be deeply appreciated and would make a meaningful difference for this resilient family as they work to rebuild their lives. Thank you for your time and consideration.

A dedicated student who will be graduating this June from Riverside City College with her RN certification is a single mother who has shown remarkable commitment in managing her academic responsibilities, parenting, and limited work hours. Due to the intensity of the RN program, she is currently working reduced hours, making it challenging to cover the costs associated with the licensure process. Assistance with the following expenses will enable her to obtain her nursing license and begin employment as a registered nurse, with starting wages around $40 per hour. This will greatly enhance her ability to independently support herself and her son.

This is a resilient family of five who have faced significant housing instability throughout this school year. They have been forced to move four times, often living in doubled-up situations and renting single rooms from strangers. Despite these challenges, through determination and hard work, they have finally secured a home of their own. As they begin this new chapter, the family is in urgent need of several household items to help them settle in safely and comfortably. Their most immediate need is a baby gate to keep their twin toddlers safe. Additional items that would greatly help include a blender, a dining set, and plastic reusable drinking glasses. Any support or donations toward these essential items would make a meaningful difference for this family as they build stability and a sense of home. Thank you for your generosity and compassion.
