Help Strengthen a Bio Family
I am working with a biological mother of five children. Mom is compliant with services and recognizes she needs help achieving sobriety. Mom has agreed to go to medical detox followed by inpatient care. Mom has identified past due rent as a barrier that would postpone or potentially prevent her from going to detox and inpatient care. Mom's monthly rent is just below $200 a month and she is behind by three months. Mom is currently looking for employment in order to pay the past due balance but could prioritize her sobriety and postpone job seeking if there was no past due balance.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing
Hello! I have a 15 year old girl who just recently reunited with her bio mom. She has been through a few placements before getting back to bio mom and would love to have some things she has lost along the way! She is in need of tennis shoes size 8 in women's. She had weighted blankets she lost in a previous home and needs those as well. She would love some summer clothes/dresses, she wears size medium in shirts/dresses. She is petite and Caucasian. She likes make-up and likes to dye her hair temporary colors. She would be grateful for anything else that can be gifted or donated for a teenage 15 year old girl! Thank you!!

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing
A sweet family took placement of a child in March, and they are not receiving any financial assistance from OKDHS at this time. Throughout the placement, the family has managed their finances well. After paying their monthly expenses at their original location this month, they were informed their landlord sold the property and requested the family to move immediately; after making all required bill payments and rent at the location. The family has located a new residence. They were able to make the initial deposit and take care of moving expenses. However, they are now short of $300 for rent for the new residence.
They have reached out to community resources and have been unsuccessful with obtaining assistance. As a last resort the family has reached out to OKDHS for assistance to help cover the remaining $300. Any assistance would be much appreciated. Without having the added expenses for the future months to come, the family will be back on track in managing their bills. The family and I thank you for any assistance you can provide.

We have a mother and daughter who have been brought back together. We have observed the mother and child to have a great bond. The mother just moved into a new apartment and will be starting a new job in the next couple of weeks. The mother has overcame many obstacle's in her life, and during our interaction with the mother we have observed an amazing turn around in her life. She is needing assistance with her rent and only has a short window of time to do so. If this barrier can eliminated it will help the mother save for incoming bills. We would like to add that this is a one time ask, because the mother believes she will be able to meet all of the needs in the home once she starts working full time. Thank you for considering this need.

We have a father that is in need of a gas card. The father works fulltime and after paying bills he normally does not have the funds to put gas in his car. The father has talked about getting a second job and the gas card will help out until he is able to bring in extra income.

Help Preserve a Foster Care Placement
Hello, I have a foster parent in need of a couple of items to help with a baby in her care. First, she is asking for a walker. The 7-month-old she is caring for has started crawling and pulling up on everything. She would like to have the security of knowing he is not able to get himself stuck behind, between, or under something while she is cooking, cleaning, doing other household chores, or caring for the 2 two-year-olds in her care as well. That leads to her second request, a pack-and-play. The two-year-olds managed to climb into it, proceeded to jump around and broke hers. If you have either of these items that your little one may have outgrown recently, she would be very happy to take them off your hands.

I have a mom with seven children that are in reunification. She has worked hard to get her children back in her home and care. She is asking for help with a couple of things. First, to pay her electric bill. She has been working but was a bit short this month. Her bill is $78.19 and isn't due until 5/20. She would be very appreciative for help with any amount. Second, her youngest child is outgrowing her infant carrier. She is looking for help getting a reversable (rear/forward facing) car seat. She is not looking for anything fancy, just something to keep her little one safe. If you are able to assist with either of these requests, she would be most grateful.

Help Reunify a Bio Family
Hello! We are looking for a little help for a father that has successfully reunified with his children. This dad has really gone above and beyond to ensure his children were returned, and issues were corrected. There were some issues at reunification that actually resulted in the kids being returned about 3 weeks ahead of schedule. Dad needs a little help meeting the financial needs a little early. We are asking for a lawn mower any in working order will help! His yard is not large so a push mower is much appreciated. Shortly after the children were returned his clothes dryer bit the dust. We are asking for an electric clothes dryer in working condition if possible. Any help is appreciated!
