We have a foster family that needs two new mattresses for twin beds. This family is also doing respite which we need badly. These mattresses will complete a set and be able to house two more children.

The mother's newborn was placed into custody and the mother is homeless with no phone and no means of being able to stay in touch with her case worker, service providers, or attorney once she is released from the hospital to maintain services and be able to have contact for arranging family time with the newborn during the case.

Kinship foster family needs assistance obtaining a baby gate to be in compliance with the foster care approval process. The family needs a "wood banister & stair safety gate". Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as the family has had to spend a lot of personal funds to baby proof their home before they've been approved.

This foster family of four is still in the process of approval and in the need of help with their rent. Both foster parents are disabled and on strict financial budgets so any help is greatly appreciated. This foster mother recently graduated with her first Associate's degree to be able to work part-time to help support the family. She is actively looking for a job and anticipates having one to supplement the income for the next month. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Parents need your help paying the summer camp fee of $675 in order to provide a positive peer opportunity for their 14 year old son with other disabled children. Their son is non-verbal, autistic and an epileptic. One of the parents’ plans to attend this camp with their son. This young boy needs and deserves lots of positive interaction with peers in a supervised and safe atmosphere so he can experience new things available at this camp. By covering even a portion of the camp fee, you will be making a huge difference in this family’s life. This boy will be able to zip line through the woods, jump off a diving board amidst a cheering crowd and create a lifelong relationship with a camp friend among many other camp activities. The Family and Child Welfare thank you for considering assisting with this fee. Again, any donation amount will go to pay for this young boy’s camp fee.

A family of four have worked very hard to get to the place where they are looking at reunifying. The single mother has housing but none of the children have beds. We are requesting 4 beds so that each child can have his/her own bed at night. This could two sets of bunkbeds or four twin sized beds.

Father of three children who have been in DHS custody for a year is in need of completing a program which requires an initial assessment. The initial assessment fee is 95.00 and the father is not able to cover the cost at this time. The program that needs to be completed is 52 weeks long, so the father getting started as soon as possible is important. Permanency worker is asking for someone to pay the assessment fee.

I have a mom who got behind on the rent when she had to take off work to have a baby. She's been able to get almost all the way caught up but is still a little short. With her rent caught up, we'll feel more secure in closing her case, knowing she has a safe place for her children to stay.

Hello! I have a Grandmother who has placement of her grandchildren and is looking for a foldable metal twin bed frame for her Granddaughter. If anyone has one available that could donate one or has the funds to purchase that would be amazing and Grandma would really appreciate it! Thank you!!

I have a family in Tulsa that has placement of their god children - ages 16 and 11. The household consists of the two girls and three adults, foster parents and his adult son. The family is also planning to accept placement of the girls' younger brother, age 5. They currently reside in a two bedroom, one bathroom apartment. The foster parents have sacrificed their bedroom to have the girls placed in their home. They have been sleeping on a mattress in the living room. They have an opportunity to move to a four-bedroom apartment. In order for their brother to be placed with them, the family has to move to a larger place. They will move at the end of June. We are asking for any help towards the deposits or final rent payment at the old place. They are requesting the amount of $706 towards the new apartment or $1095 for the rent at the old apartment for the month of June. This is so they children can be placed together, and the foster parents can move from the living room floor. Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

Foster parents are in need of help with summer camp for a child in care. The child has stated that he would like to attend the camp with the church and foster parents are struggling to pay out of pocket.

Please consider helping a mother and father with a new convertible car seat for their baby. Today is their baby girl's first birth day and she is in need of a bigger car seat. The parents have been progressing in their case and have been able to move to unsupervised family time with their daughter. They are also transporting her during their family time together. They were previously able to use the foster parents' car seat and were not prepared to have to buy a new one just yet. A new car seat is a big expense for them as they do not have much money. Thank you for your consideration.

A father needs some financial assistance with a Parenting Capacity Evaluation. This will ensure the safety and ability for a parent to be able to parent his children. This testing will ensure that the parent has an understanding of the children's needs, has the ability to create an emotionally safe environment and recommend any services needed to increase parenting abilities. The test is a large financial burden and this amount is the remaining amount that will help get the evaluation scheduled.

I have 2 bio parents that do not have transportation at this time and they are in trial reunification with their children. They both are needing assistance with transportation to complete services and get to jobs. They both are in need of a 31 day bus pass to help assist with their transportation barrier. Meeting this need would help these parents to finish their treatment plan and complete their case successfully.

Family is needing help getting bedroom furniture for a three year old girl to begin trial reunification. The parents got their own home and they are starting over with everything since it was lost in storage. The three year old girl is needing a bed, dresser and toybox.

A foster parent is need of twin beds. They are looking to open their home for Respite (short term) and foster other children. She is need of more beds to do this.

Good afternoon. I’m Christina Flowers, a school-based specialist with Union Public Schools. I’m currently working with a family that consists of a single mother with five children 7 years old and younger. This mom recently started a new job and fell behind on her rent while in between jobs. She was also making large payments toward a debt she owed to avoid garnishment. This single mother agreed to a settlement for this debt that required her to pay a certain amount with the balance being written off. She has reached out to multiple resources provided to her but has been unsuccessful with receiving assistance. This mother is seeking assistance to help her family remain in their home. She stated with assistance she’ll be able to maintain her rent moving forward. The monthly rent is $1200, the outstanding balance is $2750, but any amount will be greatly appreciated.
