Hello all,
An 8 year old female came into care after being removed from her family due to homelessness and severe neglect. She is now in an adoption motivated placement that is meeting her needs but also needs help. She has been in therapy since coming into care and her therapist has recommended that she participates in extracurricular activities as much as possible. She is the only child the caregiver has in the home, however, she is extremely exhausted after her workdays as a teacher. This child has taken a strong interest in learning to play the piano. She has taken the initiative to find a local resource that is available for her and is needing financial assistance at this time.
Tuition-$100
Workbook-$30
One time registration fee-$15
Payment can be made directly to the vendor or caregiver.

The child is a 16-month-old who is currently placed in a kinship placement. The placement is a lower income household that has reported child is getting too big for her pack and play. The kinship placement is needing assistance with a toddler bed.
A child has been taken care of by fictive kin for the majority of their lives and the caregiver struggles to make ends meet due to not receiving any help from the biological family. The family is in need of help with paying for the fee to an apartment that they were able to get. They also would benefit greatly from a highchair, a kid's bed, and clothing for both children. There is a 4-year-old female child who wears 4T-5T in clothes and 11 in kid's shoes. There is a 2-year-old male child who wears 3T in clothes and 7 in toddler's shoes. Updated on February 21, 2023 by an Agency Worker The family was able to cover housing fee's but could still really use some help on household items for the children to put into the apartment.
Caregiver is a single mother of 3 young girls all under the age of 5. She has been a victim of domestic violence and she has no biological family in the state of Texas. She managed to develop a good relationship with the paternal grandmother of one of her children and that is her only support system. The Department assists her with providing daycare and she was recently approved for housing. She was in an apartment and unfortunately had to leave the apartment with her 3 young children unexpectedly 3 days before Christmas due to pipes bursting from freezing temperatures. The caregiver lost all of her beds and furniture as a result of this water damage to her apartment. She has struggled to get into a new apartment and is in the process of trying to rebuild. She does not currently have any furniture aside from 2 air mattresses and a pack and play. The mother is working from home and trying to save up to replace what was lost from the water damage, but she is struggling to get back on her feet. The assistance of the beds and a couch for her children would take off some of the stress until she is able to fully get back on her feet.
Grandmother is taking care of 7 year old boy that just got back in school after being out due to homeschooling (mother did not have a place to stay). He is in need of clothing (uniforms khaki pants 10-husky, White long sleeve shirts, Purple polo shirt (10-12 size), youth shoes -4 and a winter coat)
A young mother has left a domestic violence relationship and is now pregnant with twins and has a very limited income. Her child is in need of a toddler bed for safe sleep. A mattress, bedding and sheets are also needed. The mother has aspirations of becoming a CNA but is in need of a GED study book to prepare her for taking the GED test in the future. This young mother will have three children that will be depending on her in order to have their needs met.
A Godmother and her fiancee had her 3 God daughters placed with them, who are ages 6, 7, and 8 years old. After the girls were placed with them they both lost their jobs. The couple is currently driving for Lyft to try to make ends meet, but finances are very limited. The girls are sleeping on airbeds and the caregivers are asking for help with purchasing 2 sets of bunk beds and 4 mattresses and sets of sheets for the girls. In addition, they are asking for help purchasing school uniforms for the kids. One girl wears a size 4-5, one girl wears a size 6-7, and the other girl is wearing a size 7/8 in shirts and a size 10 in pants. The girls can wear Navy or khaki pants and red, navy, forest green, or white polo shirts.
An aunt and uncle recently had their two nephews placed with them who are ages 11 and 13 years old. The boys came to them with very little clothing for winter. The caregivers are requesting assistance with winter clothing for the boys. The 11 year old wears a size 10/12 in boys clothing for pants and shirts. The 13 year old wears a mens size medium in shirts and size 32X30 in pants. They are also requesting assistance with purchasing socks and underwear for the boys.
