Please help this single mother of 6. The mother was evicted after paying her rent up for several months and did not get her money back. This caused her to move into a 2 bed hotel with her and her children. While at the hotel her large suv was stolen and now she has no transportation to take her kids to school. I am asking for anyone who can help provide a rental car for the mom until she can hear back from the insurance company and/or save more money to get her own. I also am asking for someone to help with new hotel in a safer area for her and her kids for up to a month. Anything you can do for this family will be helpful!
The mother in this case is a single mom of 3 children under the age of 5, 2 girls and 1 boy. She was raised in the foster care system and has a very limited support system. She recently got a job after being unemployed for 2 months and moved into a new apartment and does not have a washer and dryer. She does not have extra income to use a laundry mat and has been washing the clothes in the sink for the time being. A washer and dryer would be extremely helpful to this family.
This case involves 5 children who were placed with their maternal grandmother due to substance exposure to the twin babies. The babies were in the NICU and have not been cleared for daycare yet. The grandmother had to quit her job in order to meet the needs of the children. We are seeking cots or a trundle for the older children and a swing for the babies.
Youth aging out of care/homeless in need of bedding for twin mattress. Bedding includes fitted sheet, top sheet, comforter, and two pillow cases. This bedding will allow the youth to gain access to a clean and safe living environment, the first step in the road to independency. Having a room and bedding that they can call their own will empower them to go out and reach their educational, vocational, and personal goals so they can transition into adulthood well.
A single mother currently in transition with 6 children are in need of hygiene items, uniform clothing, and beds. The family is also in need of wrap-around services for this family, as one children has Downs Syndrome. All children are Dallas ISD students. 4 children will need twin beds (bunk beds preferred - 2 boys, 2 girls) and bedding. I would love to set up a time to talk about wrap around opportunities with the churches responding.

Providing these items will help the children attend school in proper attire and adequate hygiene. I would love to set up a time to talk about wrap around opportunities with the churches responding.
Our small school provides wrap around case management services to help our high school aged students graduate. We have a pregnant student living on her own who has very few items for herself and her "almost here" newborn. This young mom to be has faced trauma and difficulties in her young life that would debilitate most. She is very near to graduating and we want to support and honor her efforts as she tries to live independently. She needs a baby swing for the baby, but a full bed, bed linens, pots and pans, and flatware for herself

Various Baby Supplies (see description for details)
A young mother was living in the streets with a male 25 years older than her. With him she was using multiple substances, using sex to get money, and being subjected to occasional physical abuse by the male. He was manipulating her to control her and use her to gain access to money and drugs. She learned that she was pregnant by the man when she was 6 months pregnant and returned home to her mother for support. her mother has helped her make better choices for the safety of the baby and the health of the both of them. Grandmother has helped to provide items for the baby since the mother had no positive associations, she has obtained almost all needed items with the exception of an infant stroller and swing. Mother is trying to go out to look for jobs and but does not drive so she needs a stroller to be able to take her son out with her if grandmother is not home. She stated that she will sit the baby in his car seat during the day so he is not constantly laying but it would be nice if she had a swing so he is able to move better than he can when strapped in car seat. The family is trying to get Mom back into a routine and has not requested any help from anywhere so they would be greatly appreciative of any help.
A child has been taken care of by fictive kin for the majority of their lives and the caregiver struggles to make ends meet due to not receiving any help from the biological family. The family is in need of help with paying for the fee to an apartment that they were able to get. They also would benefit greatly from a highchair, a kid's bed, and clothing for both children. There is a 4-year-old female child who wears 4T-5T in clothes and 11 in kid's shoes. There is a 2-year-old male child who wears 3T in clothes and 7 in toddler's shoes. Updated on February 21, 2023 by an Agency Worker The family was able to cover housing fee's but could still really use some help on household items for the children to put into the apartment.
Grandmother is taking care of 7 year old boy that just got back in school after being out due to homeschooling (mother did not have a place to stay). He is in need of clothing (uniforms khaki pants 10-husky, White long sleeve shirts, Purple polo shirt (10-12 size), youth shoes -4 and a winter coat)
A Godmother and her fiancee had her 3 God daughters placed with them, who are ages 6, 7, and 8 years old. After the girls were placed with them they both lost their jobs. The couple is currently driving for Lyft to try to make ends meet, but finances are very limited. The girls are sleeping on airbeds and the caregivers are asking for help with purchasing 2 sets of bunk beds and 4 mattresses and sets of sheets for the girls. In addition, they are asking for help purchasing school uniforms for the kids. One girl wears a size 4-5, one girl wears a size 6-7, and the other girl is wearing a size 7/8 in shirts and a size 10 in pants. The girls can wear Navy or khaki pants and red, navy, forest green, or white polo shirts.
An aunt and uncle recently had their two nephews placed with them who are ages 11 and 13 years old. The boys came to them with very little clothing for winter. The caregivers are requesting assistance with winter clothing for the boys. The 11 year old wears a size 10/12 in boys clothing for pants and shirts. The 13 year old wears a mens size medium in shirts and size 32X30 in pants. They are also requesting assistance with purchasing socks and underwear for the boys.
