A youth I am working with is applying for jobs. He does not have a car or driver's permit at this time. When talking about how he would physically get to his job, he said he planned to use his first paycheck to buy himself a bike. I asked him if I could use CarePortal to request a bike from the community, he said he would think about it. He finally agreed to allow me to make this request! The bike that he is interested in are linked here: Go To Link Go To Link

The youth is 15 years old and average height (under 6 foot tall). He said that he would be so grateful for any bike, even if it is not the ones linked. Thank you!

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.

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!

A four-year-old girl is interested in playing soccer and her CASA and caregiver believe it will be a good social outlet for her, as well as a constructive thing to do during the summer. She has not had the opportunity to participate in this kind of extracurricular activity before, so we would love for her to have the chance. There are soccer lessons at her local YMCA, and she would also need some shin guards please. Thank you for your consideration!

Any partial funding of the requested $500 is also appreciated. Thank you!

Caseworker is working with a family who is currently going through a separation. They were evicted from their apartment and Dad is currently renting a room through a coworker and is having a difficult time getting on his feet. He is requesting a gift card to help with gas in getting to work each day or with food to help with groceries for himself as he is spending his current extra money on being able to take his children places when he sees them. Dad is gainfully employed but is between paychecks at the moment and has been struggling financially, especially with the sudden move.
