Normal Request
This mother had her child placed out of her home but has since done everything that she needed to do to regain placement. The mother has been working hard on her mental health and has been able to identify a few things that would help her get her selfcare in and her child to have his needs meet as well. The winter months are going to be rough on her due to her not getting all the hours she was promised at her job. She also lost a lot of money when she was out on medical leave for a broken foot. She could use a planner to stay organized, a mini trampoline to burn energy and a hot wheels track to keep her son occupied in positive activities. Thank you!

Recovery has been a process for this mother of two girls, 6 and 1, yet she has worked hard to overcome so many obstacles. This mother was provided an amazing opportunity with the Missouri Apprentice ready program and recently became certified and as a laborer through Liuna Construction and General Laborers. This is a great big deal yet it comes with the loss of benefits immediately, childcare specifically. She owes $1110 due to losing her childcare assistance which has caused extreme hardship and stress for her with wondering "why am I trying to do better." This amazing opportunity has allowed her to help with our expansion which she has started yet not having childcare is going to be a barrier to continuing. She is needing help $1110 to get caught up on childcare at Browns Christian Academy.

We have a family of four that could use some help. Mom is struggling raising the kiddos by herself and dealing with her own heart issues. The home is in pretty bad shape with trash everywhere, clothes piled up everywhere and a pest/mice problem. We are hoping that someone can help with hiring an exterminator for the home so they can start getting it cleaned up and safe for the kids. ZipZap Termite and Pest Control has given an estimate of $400 for the needed services, the initial treatment and 1 to 2 follow ups. ZipZap is in the area where the family resides.

The mother needs to secure the home with baby gates as she has two smaller children under age of two.

Mom would like to request for washer and dryer as well for the family of 6, it would be difficult to have to take the children to a nearby laundry mat.

Due to medical issues and emergencies for the family, as well as running a small business out of her home, mother has not been able to file her taxes for her home or business.

High Urgency Request
Single mother with four high needs children needs assistance with rent to allow them to have housing. Mother works but often has to take time off due to her children's behavioral and medical needs, cuting into her paycheck. On top of this, her apartment is making her pay late fees and is not allowing her to split payments until she gets caught up, which the fees are making difficult. Mother needs assistance with rent so she can get caught up. If this month is paid off, she will be able to be caught up and will not have trouble paying rent in the future.

Disabled mother with two high-needs children requires assistance with her electricity build. Like many other families in the Kansas city area, summer was especially hard on her and her family and the families older house has poor insulation, so running the AC got out of control. If Bill can be paid, Mother will be able to get on a payment plan which should greatly help the family.

Help Make a Foster Care Placement

High Urgency Request
The family in need currently has 4 children placed. Each child has been placed in the home for over a year. This family is willing to accept two additional children. One of which is a sibling to one of the children already in the home. Another is a 15 y/o child who was abandoned by her mother. She's eager to attend school as she's been homeschooled since kindergarten. In order for the child to attend school she has to reside in a home/district. This placement provider welcomes both children with open arms but is unable to provide a living space until additional bedding is in place. Both children need placement and stability ASAP; this home would be a great fit for each of the children. Please consider. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

High Urgency Request
There is a family who is facing shut off of their utilities and risk falling behind on their mortgage payment due to owing back money on their past bills on their utilities. They were trying to supply diapers and food for their kids without having them realize the situation they were in. They did not want especially their eldest child to see they were struggling and wanted to have some normalcy in the home. The breadwinner of the family, the father, lost his job at Watersee, and he was laid off due to a bankruptcy and he was left to figure things out for the sake of his kids. With the kids going back to school, they had to get some help from their parents to buy some supplies for the kids. The father had an interview yesterday for a new job, and he has a few lined up this week that he is hoping he can get so he can start working as soon as possible. He worries he will not get a paycheck in time to pay before they get cut off and then he will have fees to turn them back on that he cannot afford. He wants so hard to provide for his family and even felt shameful asking for help, but he said it has gotten to a point where he had nowhere else to turn to. These parents are working tirelessly to make ends meet for their children they are hoping to start trial home visits soon and stress the importance of having the basics for their kids. This family risks having their utilities shut off and does not want his kids to see his mom and dad struggling. Updated on September 08, 2023 by an Agency Worker
