Growing By Grace Ministry

The mom is currently not working due to having a baby. She hasn't been able to work since having the baby. Dad currently is working on and off jobs and at the moment they do not have income and family is helping. Mom stated she went to food stamps and applied,but she is currently waiting for the application to be processed. The family is needing help with groceries and baby items.

A single mother with 4 children is in need of 2 bunk beds. The children were sleeping on air mattress and are no longer in good condition. Any help would be appreciated.

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.

House consists of mom, grandma and child. Grandma and mom both work but grandma had a heart bypass not too long ago and cannot work for long periods. The mom was working but her store closed abruptly as they filed for bankruptcy. Mom’s checks from there have been bouncing as the company doesn’t have money to pay the employees right now. She got a new job but it is going to take a few weeks before she gets her first check and it will be very small since she just started. Mom also had to take a week off when her autistic child was sick and he recently had a procedure in the hospital she had to be off for as well. The family is behind right now on bills. I have helped with the bills but they need groceries, pull ups, household products such as toilet paper, cleaning products, etc.

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 young mother (26 years-old) has 6 children and is needing assistance with furniture from their new home. The mother is currently not working as she suffers from severe depression. The four older children's father has been deceased for three years. The two younger children's father is semi-involved. The family is needing two twin bunk beds, twin mattresses, two toddler beds, toddler mattresses, a full or queen size bed and a mattress, a couch, and a dining room table. These items will be able to help assist with the children to have sleep better and be able to be prepared for school due to them having a good night's rest. And not having to sleep on the floor. Also having furniture in the home to give the children an opportunity to have a cozy and comfortable home. As Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Theory suggests that basic needs must be met before individuals can progress to higher-level needs. The most basic needs for survival, including air, water, food, shelter, sleep, and other biological requirements effects a person's psychological needs.

Mother and 5-year-old are currently homeless and needing assistance with temporary stay in a motel for few days until, she can find an alternate caregiver for her child. She has reached out to area shelters and none of them have spots available and there is long waiting list. She tried with her extended family members and none of them are able to help her at this time. She is requesting financial help with few days stay at Super 8 Motel in Fort Worth which cost $75 per night. She is helped by her brother for tonight.

The family has recently become homeless. The mother of the children was living with her grandmother which was across the street from the school. The grandmother has kicked the mother and her 4 children out of the house. they are homeless and staying with a friend in Ft. Worth. However, she does not have gas to continue bringing the children to school in Waxahachie. We cannot help with transpiration because this living arrangement is not long term. The friend is only allowing temporary housing.

Support needed for three amazing single mamas who are in need of funds to help cover groceries and household supplies for the next month. This includes two mamas with 5-month-old babies who need baby essentials like formula, diapers, and wipes, as well as a third mama who is pregnant and needs nutritious food and household necessities to prepare for her little one’s arrival. Any contributions, whether big or small, will go directly towards ensuring these families have what they need to stay healthy, safe, and supported during this challenging time. Let’s come together to make a difference in their lives—every little bit helps!

Good morning and Thank you Pastor Favors, thank you for the prayers and for following up to support the family. God Bless you the Church and CarePortal.

The family is a family of 7, consisting of a mother, father, and 5 children: a 17-year-old, 15-year-old, 13-year-old, 11-year-old, and 9-year-old. At this time the family is having financial barriers in providing basic needs for their children. The family would benefit from one dresser for the boys to store their clothing as well as a bunk bed for them to share. The family has mattresses and is just in need of a frame for the bunk beds. The family of 7 resides in a 2-bedroom home, so space is tight. Due to the financial barriers the family is unable to purchase a dresser and bunk bed frame. The family will appreciate any items given at this time. The following items are needed:

• 1 bunk bed frame
• 1 dresser

This family is a single parent low-income household with two intellectually and developmentally disabled children that need constant care and attention from the parent. Mother is unable to have a full-time job to have the financial ability to provide the adequate furniture that is needed in the home. Mother does not have a lot of support from the community and the school has not been favorable of the mother which limits her access to resources. Medical care for the children is expensive and she pays for it out of pocket and her family helps her financially to pay the bills for the home.
