We are working with a caring grandmother who is taking care of her grandchildren full time, but she was diagnosed with cancer and is undergoing chemotherapy. As a result of the therapy she is losing her hair, and it is causing her a lot of emotional distress, since she is not able to afford a wig. Helping her to feel dignified will make a significant difference in her life and will add to her emotional well-being and also that of her grandchildren.

I am reaching out on behalf of a family in need of support. The family consists of a devoted elderly woman who adopted her niece as a baby, stepping in to provide love and stability when the child was at risk of entering the foster care system. Now a teenager, this young woman is preparing to begin her senior year of high school—grieving the recent loss of her father while continuing to thrive academically. Despite the challenges they face, the teen has maintained straight A’s and has her heart set on attending Louisiana State University to pursue a career in forensics. She would be the first in her family to graduate from high school and attend college—an extraordinary milestone made possible by her resilience and her adoptive mother’s unwavering support. Due to her age, the adoptive mother is unable to work and lives on a very limited income, making it difficult to manage the growing expenses of senior year. However, she is determined to give her daughter the full experience she’s earned so she can feel the pride and joy of her accomplishments. I am requesting a $150 Visa gift card to help cover some of these expenses, including school supplies, a senior ring, and graduation items. This support would not only help ease a financial burden but would also be a meaningful investment in a young woman’s future and a celebration of all she has achieved.

The family has been struggling to obtain housing and has been staying in various shelters and motels. They have an 11-month-old child and another baby on the way. The family is requesting support with a stroller that can convert to accommodate both children, as well as a high chair. Having these items would help them care for their children more independently.

I'm working with a single mom who is participating in the Prevention Program, which is voluntary. She just moved to Colorado a few months ago with her four children and does not have any furniture. She works as a CNA and does not have much family support in Colorado. The only furniture this single mom has are beds for her children. She is in need of a bed for herself, large couch, kitchen table, coffee table, and 2 lamps. Her apartment doesn't have a ceiling light. She would really appreciate any help you can provide. Thank you!

A family of two - a single mom and her 11 year old son - are in great need at this time. The mom is unhoused and doing everything she can to get by. She is very resourceful and accesses the public library and various community resources for assistance. She is in need of personal supplies such as hygiene products, non-perishable food items, clothing, and items for her son. She would greatly benefit from a gift card to Walmart to be able to get these supplies. She is working hard to become employed, gain stability, and be able to care for herself and her son, and this gift card would make a huge difference for this family! 2. For mom: Medium clothes, 8 in women's for shoes; for kiddo: 8-10 and a 6 in boys' shoes. They've been homeless for a long time and many of the belongings that she and kiddo once had were stolen, lost, or damaged, so it would be really meaningful for him to have something from mom that he can keep and have with him. He ha very recently been removed from mom and placed in a foster home.

I have two girls (10 and 9) on my caseload, their mom has severe mental health issues, and their dad is incarcerated, and they are being raised by their grandparents who struggle financially. The grandparents are doing the best they can for the girls but they need help getting the girls tablets so they can continue to engage in counseling online, play games and interact with their friends.

Both girls would like a tablet so i am asking for two but one will be good- they share everything so i think it will all be okay if we only receive one.

A family of four is requesting support with two car seats to ensure their children can be transported safely to school and around the city. The children are 5 and 2 years old. This family’s initial contact was for rental assistance due to financial hardship. They were struggling to make ends meet and were experiencing a domestic violence situation, with no household income at the time. An application for rental assistance was submitted; however, due to the 45–60-day period and the risk of eviction, the family chose not to wait . Instead, they decided to rent out a room and are now able to cover the rent difference, but unable to get cover the additional cost of two car seats for their 5-year-old and 1 ½ year children.

My disabled daughter and I lost our home unexpectedly and had to move into a hotel for a while. We were able to find an apartment and recently moved in, but financially it took a big toll on us. I am a single mom and struggling to make ends meet. Any help to get back on our feet would be greatly appreciated.

This mom recently left her abusive partner. She is rebuilding her life with the help of her family members, but money is very tight right now. Her young son has autism and is non-verbal, and right now they are struggling with safe driving. Kiddo will unbuckle himself when driving in the car but is too big for a generic car seat. Mom is looking for a "special needs" car seat, but they are very expensive, and she can't currently afford one. Right now, she has to pull the car over every few minutes to re-buckle him into his seat on their way to school which takes time and is dangerous. It would greatly relieve a very specific stress while mom works to find supportive housing and re-settles into her new life. Below are links of car seats that would work for this family.

J. is a single mom with one child still at home. She has worked tirelessly to get her certification towards a new career in order to better support her family. She has applied for many jobs and is attending interviews, but she just needs a little bit of help to finish out the program and keep food on the table for herself and her daughter. Your support would mean a lot to them!

The child is currently under thee care of her grandmother. After months of efforts, grandma and the child were able to get a two-bedroom apartment. Unfortunately, during the move, the furniture and other items became un-useable. Grandma is on a fixed income. Grandma is requesting support from the community to get the essential items so that their new home is livable.
