I have a placement who is caring for her two teenage nieces after they were abused in their adoptive home, she is wanting to send them to a summer church camp, Grace Church of Arvada, the cost is $150.00 per kid, + a $50 registration. ($350.00 needed total) Their caregiver is hoping to get help covering the costs while she works on becoming a certified foster home provider to care for the girls long term and get them some summer activities to participate in. (Recommendations for other summer activities/camps/events for a 17 y.o. & 11 y.o. would also be appreciated!!!)

Foster Source regularly receives requests for non-certified kinship caregivers in need of safety items. Non-certified kin can become certified and receive much needed financial assistance just like traditional foster parents. One of the requirements for certification are safety items - 5lb fire extinguishers, cabinet locks/outlet covers, medicine lock boxes, and carbon monoxide & smoke detectors. We could use your help in getting these items so that when families make the request, we have them on hand to distribute in a timely fashion. If you are able to provide any of these items (in any quantity), they can be delivered to our office within the Adams County Human Services Building (Westminster) or we can arrange a pick up. Thank you for helping us with this frequent and urgent need!

Caseworker is working with a single mother of 3 children under the age of 5 years old. Mother is having to move and is in need of assistance to offset the financial strain of moving and would also like to be able to purchase basic household items for her and the children. Mother is employed and is doing her best but at this time, could use additional financial support if possible.

Caseworker has a family in which 4 children total are placed with Grandmother. The 2 oldest children are 10-year old twins and they really want to be able to participate in their end-of-school-year bookfair. Caseworker talked with the school to see if they had resources to offset the cost to no avail. Caseworker also reached out to other funding sources at Denver Human Services which could not assist either at this time. Caseworker is asking for $70 in gift cards (or whatever amount is possible) so the two children can attend the book fair and pick out books for over the summer that will belong to them. Grandmother is on a budget and does not have the extra income for the children either.

Child in kinship foster care needs a twin mattress. This child is autistic and is not yet toilet trained. His current twin mattress is soiled. Grandmother providing care does not have the available funds for this purchase.

This youth has been in the foster care system for most of her teenage life. Parents rights were terminated and it has been a struggle for this youth to get stabilized. We were recently able to find her a kinship placement and stabilize the youth, however she has no belongings of her own. This youth turns 18 in a few months and will then be a part of the Foster Youth in Transition program and is trying to get belongings of her own. The current placement does not have a bed and this youth is sleeping on the couch currently. The kinship provider is working to fix the basement, which just flooded adding a financial burden, into a room for the youth and is hoping for some help purchasing a bed for this youth so that she feels more stabilized and at home. ###-####.p?variantid=(###) ###-####&storeId=003012&utm_kxconfid=t6c7xqs94&gclid=CjwKCAjwpayjBhAnEiwA-7ena1_XO9l5OzlhwmvXTo_-jfxSdm_2O9XmQ8584mrW3W86ohBdIfZeGBoCDtUQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

I am working with a single mother who is only 21. She is a human trafficking victim and has been in and out of sober homes for the last eight months. The last sober home she was at she was asked to leave, but when this happened they took all of her stuff and either donated it or threw it away. This has left her with only a few clothing items and not much else. One of her belongings that got thrown away was her hair piece which is a big part of her confidence and she now is without. She is couch hopping at this time and could utilize some assistance to get a new hair piece, clothing, and toiletries. This request is for a $75 Amazon Card so she can order what is needed. The card can be electronic to best get it to her.
