Help Support a Youth Aging Out

I'm reaching out on behalf of a resilient young man currently navigating life as a Non-Minor Dependent (NMD), working hard to build a future for himself in the trades. Despite limited resources, he shows up every day, borrowing tools from co-workers just to get the job done. This dependence, though met with kindness, leaves him vulnerable and often unable to work independently. With a basic set of tools of his own, he would gain not only the ability to fully perform his duties but also a sense of pride, stability, and ownership in his growing career. Your support would not just provide equipment—it would empower a young man striving to stand on his own feet.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

A 16-year-old foster youth was recently placed with his paternal grandmother after years of not knowing each other. Despite the sudden placement, the two are working hard to build a relationship and create a sense of stability.

The grandmother, who is on a fixed income and currently receiving no financial assistance, is doing her best to support him. The youth arrived with only a few items of clothing, most of which no longer fit. He is in need of a new wardrobe and would greatly appreciate gift cards to Tillys, PacSun, or Zumiez. Even donated clothes in good condition would help. His sizes are: XL for undergarments, shirts, and shorts, and 38x32 for pants.

In addition, the youth needs a full-size bed frame, mattress, bedding, pillows, and a dresser, as the home was not prepared for his arrival. Since the grandmother does not have transportation, a bike and bike lock would also make a meaningful difference, helping him get to school and connect with his new community.

This young man has faced multiple placement disruptions, and providing some of these essentials could help him find the stability and comfort he needs in this new chapter of life. Any support—whether new or gently used—would be deeply appreciated. Thank you for considering this request.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

To assist the family in need of keeping the home organized and walkways clear in case of emergencies. Mother is a single mother caring for 2 minor children (one of which has autism) and two adult siblings also live in the home (one of which is also autistic). Parties share a two-bedroom home and although mother is able to provide for basic necessities, she does not have funds for dressers, so laundry currently has to be stored in piles on the ground. It is also difficult to maintain the cleanliness of the clothes when being stored on the floor. This is a safety concern as it limits walkway space and there are several people who need to get around including two people with delays.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

I am writing to advocate on behalf of my client, who is in urgent need of steel-toed boots (women's size 10), 2 work pants size 6/8 size medium, and work gloves (large) in order to begin her newly secured warehouse job with expected start date of 7/08/2025. Currently, her available funds have gone to paying her rent for the month of July. These items are essential for meeting the safety and dress code requirements of her employer. My client is a single mother who is determined to maintain stable employment to provide for herself and her young son. Access to this job will offer financial stability and support her long-term goal of self-sufficiency. Without the required work gear, she risks losing this opportunity, which would negatively impact her progress and well-being.I strongly support her request for assistance with these items and urge any available resources or funding to be made accessible to help remove this barrier to employment. Shields for Familes appreciates the consideration of this request.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

Dear Careportal, I am writing to respectfully request assistance in securing three beds and a crib for a single mother who is currently involved in an open DCFS case. This mother is a survivor of domestic violence and has recently taken a major step toward rebuilding her life by moving into her own apartment. Her children are in the process of being returned to her care, and while she is deeply committed to creating a safe and stable home, she currently does not have the financial means to provide beds for her children. Obtaining these beds would not only relieve significant stress for the mother but also offer her children a sense of stability, security, and comfort during this critical time of transition. Your support would allow this family to begin healing together in a safe and supportive environment. It would also enable the mother to focus on her continued progress, including maintaining her home and meeting the needs of her children. Thank you for your consideration and any assistance you may be able to provide.
