One of our moms has a 5 month old baby girl that sleeps a lot better in a baby swing - and gives our teen mama some rest as she does other things around the house during naps. She doesn't have any "safe" sleep places currently for her baby other than her own bed, but she fell off once during a nap. She has no support and does everything on her own, so this would be such a gift to her to have for her baby!

Restoration 225 is partnering with Trinity Poway and Youth & Transition to collect high-quality backpacks for children in their program(program serves students and families experiencing homelessness). Our mission is to ensure every child starts the school year with a reliable backpack that helps them feel confident and ready to learn. We’re asking for new, solid-colored, waterproof nylon backpacks in the following sizes: 19-inch backpacks – for upper elementary, middle, and high school students 16-inch backpacks – for elementary students (K–2nd grade). Backpacks should be durable and built to last the entire school year. Please consider choosing trusted, long-lasting brands. We’re aiming to collect 75 backpacks total. Thank you, Trinity, for providing school supplies to fill the backpacks—we’re excited to have other groups join in and help provide the backpacks needed. Your support will be a huge blessing to these children as they prepare to head back to school with dignity and confidence.

A single mother is trying to reunify with her son and just started working in Riverside county. She originally lost her income when the child was removed, as she was receiving SSI for the child's special needs. Due to the child's complex needs the only foster home found was far from mother's current home address. She is also facing an eviction and financial struggles with taking food or clothing items for her child during her visits. She was able to purchase a very inexpensive used car from a friend with payments from her new job. She has already spent her first worked income on basic necessities and getting the car smogged and registered. The car now needs tires to be able to be driven safely. By assisting the mother with the purchase of the tires, it will allow her to maintain her new job, prevent her from being evicted, allo wher to continue completing her court orders and allow her to meet the foster parent half way for more visits with her son to help her reunify with him. Any donation woul dbe appreciated. See link for Walmart tires. Go To Link

This request is being made urgently for rental assistance and to prevent future eviction. It concerns a single mother whose newborn baby was injured by the child's father, who is currently incarcerated. The mother is working toward reunifying with her baby. Although she does not have employment at the moment, she has interviews lined up for evening work. She is also exploring with the department and 211 for any assistance they can provide. She is dedicated to her child and attends all of the baby's appointments, which means she will need to balance work with staying connected to her baby's care.

The mother needs $1,900 to cover her rent for July. Any assistance that can be provided would make a crucial difference in her situation. Being evicted or trying to find stable housing while working on the reunification process could complicate her case and hinder her ability to reunite with her child

Mother contacted the Management to see what options are available for her to work with them and not have eviction. Mother was informed that she has credit of $400 for over payment on another month. Mother needs $1,500 by the 3rd to avoid eviction. The management company is willing to work with her and give longer time to come up the full rent amount and work out a payment arrangement, but Mother must give a payment before or by the 3rd. Please consider donating, even if it is not the full amount this will help mother not be on the street.

Thank you to our community for the generous donation. An anonymous contribution of $300 was made to assist the mother in need. I have attempted to contact her to provide this information and to check if she has been able to gather additional funds. Unfortunately, it appears that she still requires $1,200 to cover this month's rent.

The mother has had several job interviews and is hopeful about gaining employment soon, but she still needs support to keep her apartment during this transition. Please consider donating to help her and her family stay housed. Thank you for your support.

I am reaching out with a heartfelt request on behalf of a single mother in our community who is currently facing significant financial hardship while raising her five children. As you can imagine, balancing the responsibilities of providing food, transportation, and other daily essentials for a large family can be overwhelming—especially with limited resources.

We are seeking sponsorship in the form of gift cards for groceries and gas, which would provide immediate relief and support to help meet her family’s basic needs. Grocery store and gas station gift cards, even in small denominations, can make a meaningful difference.

This request is for a refugee family of 7 who recently moved from a small furnished apartment to an unfurnished one. They are asking for a refrigerator that is in good working condition. Since they live in an apartment, the ideal size would be between 20 and 24 cu ft. Style is not essential.

The father has only been able to secure work two days a week, and the mother stays at home to care for the five children. The father attends school to continue improving his English skills, which will give him more employment opportunities.

We have an opportunity to bless a lovely lady with two small kids that has just completed her transition from homelessness to getting an apartment of her own. She’s worked really hard and would love some assistance getting some basic pieces of furniture secured. We have been able to provide a queen size bed and frame as well as two toddler beds with mattresses and bedding for everyone. We still need some assistance finding two small dressers for this family.
