Help Strengthen a Bio Family

We have a young, single mother of 3 children (ages 1, 4 and 5). She is experiencing unstable housing and financial stress. The mother is a victim of domestic violence and is trying to keep her children sheltered and safe from harm. The mother has been residing with the maternal grandmother in a single unit apartment with the children. The MGM put the mother and children out on yesterday and stole the mother’s food stamps from her EBT card. The mother is not able to purchase any food for herself and the children. She was able to get a room in Hollywood through PATH and is awaiting placement in a DV shelter. DCFS and the agencies involved with this family are working tirelessly to find a residence the mother and children. The mother can be reached on her cell phone and the CSW is able to correspond with the mother accordingly. We are hoping that a donor will pick up this request and provide the family with a $300.00 grocery gift card or purchase food for the family so that the mother and children do not go hungry.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

We have a mother who has a six-month old baby that is teething. The mother is very resilient and is thriving with all of her programs she is involved in. She is a domestic violence survivor and is using her experience to build and grow within her life. She is in therapy to address the concerns that brought her family to the attention of the Department. She is a domestic violence survivor. She is a good mother who truly cares for her daughter. During our meetings the baby is always smiling and giggling. Recently, the baby began teething and is in need of hypoallergenic-silicon weaning cups, baby spoons, feeding set, and food making system (NutriBullet). I am in hopes that some of these items can possibly make it to her.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

This request is on behalf of a determined and resilient 35-year-old single mother with four children, ages 12, 9, 5, and a 4-month-old infant. Demonstrating remarkable courage and initiative, she recently secured employment in Las Vegas and is taking a bold step toward a brighter future for her family by relocating to begin this new chapter. Until now, the family has been living with the client’s parents in a shared household. With the support of loved ones and her own drive to improve her circumstances, she has secured a two-bedroom apartment in Las Vegas and will be moving before the end of May. However, because they’ve been staying with relatives, the family currently does not own any beds or bedding essentials. To help them make a successful transition and ensure the children have a comfortable and safe place to sleep, we are requesting support for: One bunk bed, One full-size bed, Bedding items including sheets, comforters, and pillows. This support will help alleviate some of the initial financial burden of relocating and allow the mother to focus on settling in and building stability for her children. Your assistance will provide not just furniture, but a foundation of comfort, dignity, and hope during this critical time. Thank you for considering this request and for supporting families in their pursuit of opportunity and independence.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

I am writing to seek assistance of a caregiver- a grandfather who is currently the primary guardian for his 16-year-old grandson. This responsible grandfather has stepped into a vital role, providing emotional, physical and financial support to his grandson during a critical period in the young man’s life. The grandfather is on a fixed income and faces financial strain, particularly as he also pays out-of-pocket for essential medical expenses. The grandfather is seeking assistance to obtain two sets of sofas to help furnish the home for both comfort and functionality. Providing the two sets of sofas would help the family remove the old ones and improve the quality of life.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

Please help strengthen a biofamily led by the mother. The mother was a victim of severe domestic violence where she felt trapped in her own home. Mother was spied on and threatened that if she disclosed the domestic violence that she was enduring, she and the children would be killed. When mother found the opportunity to leave that situation, she had to do it promptly and without any preparation. Mother and her three children left the home with only the clothes on their back. The sudden decision was made as mother believed it was the only way to save her self and the children.

This family would really benefit from some gift cards for clothing for herself.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

The family is composed of the mother, 3 children, and the father of the youngest child. The father is employed and is the main source of income for the family. The mother indicated that she sells different items online to support the family financially. The baby was born prematurely and has been in the NICU ever since. The mother reported that although the family was preparing for the child’s arrival, due to economic hardships they have not been able to afford the baby’s car seat. If an infant car seat is provided to the family, it would ensure the child’s safety travel and overall wellbeing by ensuring he can attend medical appointments.

Help Prevent a Child From Entering Foster Care

I am currently working with a single mother who is currently in the hospital about to give birth. Mother has a open case with her six year old daughter. Mother has successfully secured housing and is in complete compliance with all court orders. We are tying to prevent the Department from detaining the newborn. Mother needs to have basic necessities when the Department goes to the hospital. Mother has most of the items but not the car seat. Mother continues to work very hard to reunify with her daughter and is following all court orders and recommendations. The case put a financial strain on mother as she had to attend various classes throughout her dependency case and purchasing new items to prepare for the new baby. Mother would be grateful for any assistance , thank you in advance.
