Children age in the range of 4 to 13 and three have special needs. This mom has worked hard to secure a duplex for the next two years and works for the school district so she can be home with the kids when not in school. I hope whoever receives this request knows how deserving this precious family really is. Through all the troubles this family has endured through faith and family. They have always welcomed everyone with smiles and laughter. I am hoping to help them by getting twin bunk beds with plastic protectors and extra mattress pads.

This child turned 18 in August and is walking to and from work. She did have a bicycle that she purchased from someone on Marketplace for $20. However, she has since learned that it does not steer well. She has asked if it would be possible to find out if someone could help with her need of a bicycle. She is also working on getting into a community college. This bicycle would be used for transportation to and from work and school. The bicycle she has sent me is $130 from Walmart. We are requesting a gift card so that she can go get it herself and pick the color. Thank you for considering this request.

A single mother with multiple children in the district at different schools has been saving up to be able to move. She has been experiencing hardship with her vehicle payments and the temporary tag was stolen off the vehicle. Due to some extenuating circumstances she has had to put money toward different bills and is trying to catch up with her car payments, insurance, and tags. Having these things in place will allow her to not only make it to work but to be able to provide the transportation she needs for her kids to get to school. She has picked up part time job on top of her full time job in order to try to get her finances on track but is still struggling. Having transportation is so essential for this family. Thank you.
