Fellowship Community Church

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

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.

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.

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.

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!

Bedford County - Family of 5 which includes three children. A home visit revealed some significant needs in the home as the family is going through some challenging times and is in need of support/resources. Father is employed at this time, however there is little left for food and other basic items. The school is assisting the family in connecting with local organizations for supports and are taking the necessary steps to receive available assistance. At this point, the school staff is working collaboratively to ensure basic items are gathered and is requesting some gift cards/financial support to be able to obtain the additional needs for the family that haven't been available through the donations.

This case deals with a mother of two young boys, one of which is a special needs child. The special needs child has numerous medical needs and often has to go to medical specialists in the community. Currently she has no operable vehicle to make sure these needs are successfully accomplished. She has a vehicle that needs at a minimum a new alternator, spark plugs, tune up to include an oil change.

This family would be blessed if this request could be fulfilled.

The Department is currently assisting a family in need of critical home (Doublewide) repairs. Both parents have recently returned to the workforce. The father has started a new job, and the mother has also resumed employment. The home has sustained damage, particularly to the roof above the kitchen, where vultures have been observed picking at the caulking. This has led to water intrusion, resulting in mold growth on the ceiling and visible water damage on one of the walls. Additionally, a section of the kitchen floor is warped. According to the homeowner, repairs are needed including replacement of the ceiling trusses, floor joints, and subflooring. Any form of assistance with this matter, whether through direct support or an initial assessment and estimate, would be greatly appreciated. Photos can be provided if needed. The total estimate listed may not be accurate for the repairs.
