Plum Creek Church

I am working with a mother who lost custody of her child. She is working on getting him back, but she is struggling financially. She does not have much food in her home despite going to food banks. She is making it by on minimal groceries for herself, but she does not have enough food to supply to her son. She is working full time and is doing the best that she can. I am hoping to get her some support through a King Soopers gift card so she can purchase some groceries for her son. He is 3 years old and is very picky on what is being received by the food bank.

I am currently working with a single mother of two who is a survivor of domestic violence. She is currently doordashing as her primary job, but she is struggling to afford the amount of gas that goes into doordashing. She has a 4 year old son that she takes with her since she cant afford daycare. I am asking for any help in assisting mom with some gift cards for gas so ensure that she can continue to doordash while caring for her two children. The father is currently out of the picture due to a recent arrest for domestic violence against mother. I do not want mother to feel as though she needs to reply on her abuse to provide her for herself and her children.

Thank you!

I'm currently working with a family I have two little girls who are placed out of the home with a family member. We have asked mother and father on several occasions to provide clothing to the children as they are getting older, and summer is quickly approaching. However, mother and father has yet to provide the children with any clothes since they have been placed out of the home. I am hoping to get a gift card to allow both of the girls to pick out of new clothes for the summer. Grandmother is struggling financially as she is not only is she housing both children, but she is juggling school, mental health services, and everything else that the girls need to be successful. Both of the girls are so so sweet and I want to help out where we can. I hope that both children can get $200 to go on their own little shopping spree.

We are reaching out on behalf of a dedicated mother and her two young sons who are currently facing financial hardship. Despite her best efforts to provide for her family, the mother is struggling to make ends meet due to limited work opportunities and the growing burden of household expenses. One of her needs is asstiance with gas in order to be able to drive around for work. My hopes are to get her gas cards to help ease this burden.

I’m reaching out on behalf of a single mother and her toddler who are currently being supported through the Maternal and Child Health Program at the Douglas County Health Department. This family recently experienced a medical emergency that required the toddler to be hospitalized unexpectedly and undergo surgery. Due to this crisis, the mother was unable to work for approximately 2 weeks and is now facing significant financial hardship. We are reaching out to request gift cards for food and gas to help relieve some of the immediate burden she is facing. Any support you can provide would go a long way in helping this family stabilize during a very difficult time. Thank you so much for considering this request and for your continued dedication to supporting families in our community.

This family is in need of a gift to help with either groceries or clothes for the summer. The children have recently been through something very tragic and any support would be helpful for the caregivers.

Child has been placed with her brother who is legally blind since last year. Child is wanting to spend time with friends but it is difficult for brother to do this given his disability. Brother willfully took on the role of being a caregiver for his sibling. Brother would like to get his sister's hair done as well as nails done with her friend and would appreciate a visa gift card to help fund this. Brother takes on sole financial responsibility and doesn't have extra money for things that child is wanting.

Single mother who recently became unemployed seeking assistance with birthday gift options for her daughter who turns 9yr later this month. She would like to provide a nice birthday for her child. Mom shared some ideas that her child enjoys: playing on roller skates (size 6.5/7yr big kid), baby dolls with accessories, make up, she loves Stitch and unicorn items, and stuffed animals. Child could use some new clothes (size 10/12). Any assistance would be appreciated.

Foster mom has anywhere between 3 and 5 teenagers in her home at any given time. She works will all of her placements on independent living skills to include helping them get jobs and extra curriculars. Currently she has a 13 year old and 16 year old girl that would really benefit from bikes. The 16 year old is currently walking about a mile each way for work and a bike would significantly help in maintain this job. Additionally, the 16 year old helps watch the 13 year old over school breaks so a bike for each girl would be used during this time. Their foster mom has paid for them to have a gym membership that is within biking distance but she is not always available to transport them. Thank you!

Youth is working on their independent living skills and is needing a bike so that he can get to and from his summer job. This bike would also improve this child's life by providing transportation to the gym while his kinship providers are at work.

This youth was recently placed in a kinship home unexpectedly . The youth's clothing and shoes were disposed of by previous placement. The youth is in need of clothing and shoes. This youth is interested in Nike brand if possible for gift cards, as well as Walmart, Target, Kohls, or Visa Gift Cards. Any support is appreciated.

Single mom who recently became unemployed seeking assistance for a bicycle to use to get to work. She has fallen behind her car payments and reports her car will be repossessed. She hopes to obtain a bike that is "sturdy with good wheels" as she describes needing a bike to support a larger person. I will add a helmet would be useful to ensure safety.
