Hello! I have a family that is struggling to make ends meet since they financially helped their extended family flee an unsafe and dangerous situation in Afghanistan to come to the US to live with them. The dad is driving for Door Dash to help supplement some income, but they are still struggling, as they are helping to feed an additional 2 children and 2 adults on top of their own 3 children. This family would really appreciate the help with a King Soopers card to be able to buy groceries. Thank you!

Hello! I have a single mother that is in need of getting help for some car repairs so that she and her daughter can get back to South Dakota by the end of next week.

The family has been through a lot of trauma and the father is no longer living. Her car is in need of a new muffler, oil change, and possibly new brakes.

A 17 year old youth is residing in kinship care. She is graduating from high school in May. She needs assistance with buying announcements for her graduation. She would be able to take a target/Walmart gift card to compensate for the cost of the announcements or take help with ordering the announcements.

I have a 17 year old youth that is struggling with past trauma, complications of a blended family and with school issues. He has been struggling with substance use and is currently completing a substance use program and involved with Pretrial. He has extremely limited options socially and has spent most of the last three months in online school and substance use treatment. He has expressed that one of the things he really enjoys is rock climbing but his parents do not have the capacity to support this. I am requesting a three month summer pass to Ubergrippen in Castle Rock so that he can participate in a pro-social activity that is supervised and where he can meet positive peers.

This family has been working with the Department for a little over a year now. Recent exciting changes have happened, including moving towards adoption! With this exciting news the family was getting all medical, dental, and vision appointments taken care of. It was discovered that the 6year old is needing extensive dental work including 7 fillings, 1 crown, and 4 extractions. child will need to be put under anesthesia for this procedure. Medicaid has covered most costs other than the final $150. The family has stretched their savings as much as they can but are hoping to have some assistance for the dentist appointment. Thank you for any and all help!
