Fellowship Community Church - North Campus

We are working with a 16-year-old male who resides with his grandparents. This youth has been working really hard and come a long way. He would like to be able to attend his school prom next weekend on 5/17 but has been unable to find a suit/tuxedo. Grandparents are on fixed income and have had to designate funds to some other costs for this youth, so they are unable to afford the cost of a rental suit/tuxedo. The family has looked at all of the local second hand and thrift shops, however, they have been unable to find coordinating items in his size.

The sizes this youth would need are as follows: Shirt and Suit Jacket/Tux - 2XL, Pants - 40x38, Dress Shoes - 11.5

Mother has a newborn, and has secured housing. Mother needs help with living room furniture and a bed for herself and the baby. Currently the child is placed with her mother, and Mom is completing services before child can be in her home. Any help with this would help to be able to transition the child home.

This family consists of a mother, stepfather, and two autistic teenage boys. The family's home is infested with mice and possibly other rodents/bugs as well. They are in serious need of an exterminator service.

Weekly price for extermination is $75.

Thank you for your consideration.

I am working with a family that includes the grandfather who is a vet, his daughter and his grandson whom all live in the home. The family lives in a hoarding situation and desperately needs assistance with getting the home clean. Currently the grandfather has a boot on each foot for medical reasons, and the daughter is not mobile and in a hospital bed. The living conditions appear to be getting worse and are unsafe for the child. We are asking for either a team to help clean the home (we do recommend protective wear for this job) or assistance paying for a cleaning service and any recommendations of cleaning services that accommodate this kind of situation. If the home is not clean the child will be at risk of coming into care. The child has a very special bond with his grandfather, and we are working very hard to prevent him from being removed.

The Department is humbly seeking assistance in our extended community for donations to help ease the financial strain during this emotional time. An extended family, living in the same home, consists of a mother and her two children (17YOF and 12YOM) and the mothers brother, his wife, and his two children (1YOM and 4YOM) is presently struggling to obtain even the basic necessities to live; this includes clothing for the children. Even with the adults in the home working, their income mostly goes to rent to allow the family to remain in a safe spot. The family is able to sometimes have money left over for a few groceries but never had enough funds to get clothing for the children. The family is limited in English proficiency; which aides into the complications of seeking help from their fellow peers. The Department is asking for $100 per child to provide clothing for the children.

17YOF: Shirt: Small, Pants: 27, Shoes: 7 12YOM: Shirt: 16-18, Pants: 28, Shoes: 8

4YOM: Shirt: 8, Pants: 6 or 7, Shoes: Toddler size 12 1YOM: Shirt: 2T, Pants: 2T, Shoes: Toddler size 5

We are seeking a toddler bed and mattress to assist a local kinship family in transitioning their toddler out of a pack and play and into her own bed for the first time.

A single mom with three young children is currently in need of beds for her two toddlers. The whole family currently sleeps together in a queen-sized bed which is both a safety hazardous and a hinderance to their well-being as the mother is unable to sleep through the night. The family is requesting a twin-size bed/mattress for the 4-year-old and a toddler bed/mattress for the 2-year-old. Additionally, the family is in need of another dresser as the space they are staying in does not have closets causing storage to be limited. A gently used dresser would be accepted if donated.

TWIN MATTRESSES | Children ages 2 and 3 in the home. Parents have a bunk bed for the children and are in need of two twin mattresses for the bed.

Kinship placement as well as the Department have some concerns about child's behavior/activities in the home due to recent substance use and lying. Would like to put cameras in common areas of the home for safety purposes. We are thinking between 4-6 cameras would be appropriate.

The Department is humbly seeking assistance in our extended community for donations to help ease the financial strain during this emotional time. A single mother was unexpectedly laid off and it has left her family with significant financial challenges. As a result of the release, the mother has recently lost her personal property to include her house and vehicle. She is accompanied by her 6 year old daughter. The pair are now considered homeless. With the Department’s support, her child has now been enrolled in school to promote any normalcy during this hardship. With this being said, the mother now has the ability to seek employment while her child is being properly supervised. Nevertheless, her license needs to get reinstated in order for her to transport herself to and from her anticipated occupation. The mother is working on her Master’s Degree and is one step closely on filling her dream, regaining control of her life, and securing a safe haven for her family. The Department is asking or $650.00 in hopes of helping her get there.

A gorgeous litle girl is requesting help in feeling more confident in her clothes and with her self-esteem. She is quickly outgrowing what she currently owns and is trying to get some new pieces. The following are her sizes:

2 - shorts (size 10/12) 4 - tank tops (size 10/12) 2 - dresses (size 10/12) one pair of sneakers with laces - size 4 2 - pajamas, shorts and shirt (size 10/12)

Hello! I am currently working with grandparents who are serving their granddaughter as her kinship foster parents. Their granddaughter, 3 years old, is the victim of shaken baby syndrome. This child was shaken to the extent where she is immobile and in a vegetative state. She is receiving excellent love, care, attention, and support from her family as well as all service providers. Unfortunately, the family does not have the means to transport the child without the use of a Medicaid transport van. We are requesting help from our community to supply this family with a handicap-accessible van that includes a wheelchair lift. Thank you for considering helping this family!
