Help Preserve a Kinship Placement
4
Normal Request
The day before Thanksgiving, two children ages 4 and 10 had their placement give notice leading them to move right before the holiday. A kin-like provider was able to be identified and him and his wife took the kids in with no hesitation. The children have been settling in well and the providers are finding themselves paying for gas to 2 visits with parents per week, beds for both kids, new clothes, food and Christmas coming up. This family would benefit from a gift card to off set some costs around the holidays. This would help the family ensure they have gifts and enough food for the holidays. If this need is met, finances will be one less thing to stress about for this family.

A aunt has suddenly taken in her niece (12) and nephew (12) after mother was arrested. The aunt has been able to rearrange her work schedule to accommodate having the children, searching for therapy and after school activities. The aunt is now a single caregiver with one income for 3 people. In order for the kids to virtually visit their mom, it costs $10 per visit. Aunt is having to pay for these visits in order for the kids to see their mom on a consistent basis. The aunt would benefit from a Visa gift card to load on the account to purchase visits. If a Visa is not obtainable, then a Walmart gift card can offset costs elsewhere for the family. This would benefit the children during these hard times around the holidays.

This request is for $925,00 gift card to Auto zone. The mother, 12yo and 16yo daughters have moved out of their home due to safety reasons. The 16 year old child has a jeep that is in need of repairs. They have a family friend who is willing to do the repairs but the family needs to provide the parts, we are requesting a $925.00 gift card to Auto Zone to cover the cost of the parts needed. The 16yo has completed high school and works 30-40 hours a week at Wal-Mart, her work day ends after buses run, so she needs a vehicle to get back and forth to work. Due to the unforeseen circumstances of needing to find a new place to live in a hurry, the family can not afford these repairs. And it has been difficult for mom to provide transportation due to her own work schedule. The girl's father lives in eastern Colorado, so the girls need a working vehicle to visit him at his home because he does not drive. If this need is met the 16yo will be able to continue to work and also start at the community college. This would also help the girls visit their father.
