I have a family of 2 adults, and 5 children ages 9, 12, 13, 15, and 17. The younger 3 children report never having beds to sleep on. They report sleeping on air mattresses up until this last week when they popped, to where they are sleeping on tile floors with a blanket. The family needs assistance with beds, mattresses, sheets and pillows. Assisting this family getting mattresses will help these children get a good nights rest to thrive in academics, sports and day to day life. Christmas is coming up and would make their Holiday season special!

16 year old girl new to DHS custody is need of a twin/full sized bedding set (frame, mattress and bedding). If this need is met, this will help her maintain placement in a kinship home. This child is also in need of clothing and essential items, as she has very minimal. If this need is met, this will help her maintain a sense of dignity during this difficult time.

Natural mother's electric was turned off while she was in the hospital giving birth to her baby daughter. She needs $50 to get it turned back on.

The parents are getting unsupervised visitation which occurs in the home. Their furnace went out and they are in need of heat. The parents are trying to locate funds to fix the furnace, but in the meantime would like some space heaters for warmth as it is getting colder out.

One of our foster families is in need of clothing, baby wipes, and pull ups for the children in their home. The 14 year old needs tennis shoes: size 8 1/2 (nike) (white), 2 Shirts in each color: large (Short sleeve) ( white and black), white ankle socks size 8 1/2, gloves for winter, pants (29x32), and a large black hoodie. I will provide links below for possible items. The 2 year old is in need of baby wipes and pull ups.

I have contacted the church that has volunteered to fulfill the request but have no received a call back.

There is a family of 4 which are getting close to reunification. The parents have worked hard on their treatment plans and are ready for re-unification with their children. The family is needing 2 twin bed frame, box springs, mattresses and bedding as the children do not have any beds at the parents home. The father does have a truck if he needs to move the items. Thank you for any assistance. Updated on November 24, 2023 by an Agency Worker
If unable to obtain twin beds I believe we could make futon bed frames work as they appear to have futon mattresses but not the appropriate frames.

The family needs assistance with turning their water back on, they have been without water since September. They are having to have water brought to them from friends and also are collecting rain water and lake water to flush the toilet and bathe. In just the past week their refrigerator also went out and they are currently keeping all their cold goods on ice. The family is struggling to get by due to high medical bills. In the home is grandma, her teenage granddaughter, and her adult daughter. Grandma is unable to work due to stage 4 kidney failure.
