This mother and her three children fled domestic violence and are residing in their own apartment. The mom is trying to get situated and is having a difficult time with finding appropriate employment. She is requesting assistance with paying her rent.

I am currently working with a single mother of 5, the youngest being 10 month old twins, who has recently been placed on temporary medical leave to undergo surgery. This mom is not getting paid during this leave and is worried she will not be able to pay her rent for next month without any income coming in at this time. The mom has been able to DoorDash here and there, but the pay is so little and inconsistent, it hardly covers food, formula and hygiene products for the family. This mom just recently moved into a home and is receiving housing, however, HUD is not willing to reduce her rental costs for the time being until she can return to work at the end of next month. Local resources for assistance with this one-time rental payment have also already been exhausted. I would like to request help for this most humble mother in the amount of $750 so that she may be able to undergo her surgery without having to stress about being evicted/homeless due to these unforeseen circumstances. She and I both would be so grateful or any assistance with this. Thank you for your time.

The mother and father are struggling at this time, with providing proper care for their children. Although, they have tried to reach out to several agencies for help. Upon visiting with the family, they are in dire need of help with repairing their toilet. They have tried several ways to repair their toilet. They have tried to get the toilet unclogged but after so many months, the toilet reverts back to the same problems. The home is rented by the family but in the lease, the renters have sole responsibilities of repairing any damages to the home. At this time, the parents are unable to pay for new toilet. The family will also need an installment of the toilet.

A 15-year-old has had braces on and was supposed to get them taken out in January. The doctor will not do this until full payment is made on the braces and the mother has been struggling to manage financially so money has not been able to be allocated to the braces payment. Her due amount is $218 and the youth will be able to get them out. She wants the braces out so she can have a comfortable feeling in her mouth again.

A single mother of three young children is in urgent need of grocery support after using her limited funds to cover an unexpected car repair. She is currently low on food and struggling to provide meals for her kids, all under age six. Temporary assistance with groceries will help ease her burden and ensure her children have access to daily nutrition. Mom is actively working to regain stability and expects to manage independently moving forward.

The family is unable to pay their rent due to unforseen circumstances

The family recently moved to Dallas, and they are living in a hotel room. The hotel room doesn't have good ventilation and it's causing air Quilty issues. They are a one income household. Mom does keep the room clean. She is currently savings up to move out of the hotel, but this request would help with the temporary placement she has now for her and her daughter.

A lap top computer is needed for a youth in extended foster care to continue educational services.

The youth is 20 yrs of age in extened foster care. The youth is working as a mechanic and would like to obtain certiifications to become a master mechanic. The lap top would be helpful and allow him to study and do his assignments on his own and in privacy. The youth is smart and goal oriented and would love the assistance of a laptop.

This family is doing everything they can to rebuild their lives after facing unimaginable loss. The 41-year-old mother suffered the tragic death of her partner to suicide, which led to the loss of both her job and home. With nowhere else to turn, she and her three children—a female, age 8; a female, age 12; and a male, age 16—were welcomed in by a generous family friend who offered them a place to stay, despite managing his own serious health challenges. All three children now share one small room, sleeping on a twin mattress and an air mattress, yet they remain hopeful and close as a family. They are in need of a few basic items to help create a more comfortable and stable living environment. A trundle or bunk bed would give the children a better place to sleep, and a washer and dryer (new or used) would help them keep up with everyday clothing needs. They are also in need of clothing: size 8–10 girls tops, size 10–12 pants, underwear size 7–8, and size 5 shoes for the 8-year-old girl; XL–2XL tops, XL black leggings or yoga pants (no jeans or bright colors), size 8W shoes, and underwear size 9–10 for the 12-year-old girl; and 4–5X tops and pants, underwear size 4X boxer, and size 15W shoes for the 16-year-old boy. Any support would mean so much as this family continues to move forward with strength, love, and hope for a better tomorrow.
