She has a part-time job, she lives in section 8 housing. She is trying to meet her children's basic needs while meeting their medical needs. Her youngest is diagnosed with Turner Syndrome, which requires medication and doctor visits. Mom comes up short on the bill due to having to take off work for doctor appointments. Mother expressed just needing some starter items for her newborn baby.

She is in need of diapers size 1 and wipes, a stroller, and a car seat. Mother is in need of baby pacifiers, baby bottles. Mom stated the baby is measuring big already, she would need clothing as well, may 0-3 months. Also, a bassinet will be helpful, DCS involvement may not be involved when the baby is born.

Family recently moved into a new place after being homeless and living in a motel room. The family is in need of beds, living room furniture, and dishes. The family is in a three bedroom. Parents are in need of a Queen/King size bed and bedframe. The children are in need of two twin beds and bedframe. The family also need bedding for each room. Family is also requesting dressers for each room, two for larger bedroom due to parents sharing room with the two toddlers.

This family of six, including both parents and four children, are in need of three dressers for the children. Parents were previously involved in an out-of-home case with the Department years ago; however, they have been clean and sober for 7 years. The family has an open in-home services only case with the Department to ensure the children's needs continue to be met. One of the four children has an Oppositional Defiance Disorder diagnosis, which parents currently have them in therapy for to address; however, the child has damaged some furniture in the past when their ODD diagnosis wasn't fully addressed. These three dressers, for three out of the four children, would help ensure the children's rooms can be clean, organized and decluttered; the children having an organized and decluttered bedroom would help ensure school mornings can run more smoothly as well.

Parents are struggling to make ends meet and are unable to supply beds. Parents work for Door Dash, father works nights, mother works days as they only have 1 vehicle. The 1-year-old is currently co-sleeping with the parents. We are hoping to get him a toddler bed. Thank you!

Three kiddos live with their parents in an RV. During a recent move, the six-year-old little girl's guitar was broken. Despite being young, she loves to sing and even writes her own music. We are asking for assistance to replace her acoustic guitar.

Mother and Father need help securing their apartment for their adventurous one year old and new born baby girls. The family is winning a battle against a cockroach infestation in their apartment complex. They need help with a baby gate to keep the one year old out of the kitchen and away from water sources that draw the cockroaches. Their kitchen entrance is a unique size and spans approximately 96 inches in width.

The family is also concerned about the child’s possible future access to a firearm in the home. The father does his due diligence in securing his sidearm (unloaded, hidden from the child), but as she ages they worry about her adventurousness and the potential for an accident occurring. They want to get ahead of it to prevent a tragedy.

Having two young children, the family is struggling financially, and are doing what they can to keep their children safe. These items will be placed to immediate use and lead to both peace of mind of the parents, and ultimately the safety of two small girls full of life and potential.

The family is wanting to move into a new home/apartment soon, and could use the requested materials to continue to secure the new home when they make that decision.

A single mother of 3 experienced domestic violence in her relationship, got evicted from apartment and moved into shelter. Mother was able to save up money and has moved into a two bedroom, two baths apartment with the three kids. Additionally, mother (who is unemployed) is currently searching for a job to be able to maintain the apartment. The apartment is very bare right now and mother is asking for any assistance you may be able to help provide. She would like box springs for the children's beds, a couch, and a table and chairs to eat at.
