Two single moms, each with 2 children, are in need of extra support. Although they are both employed, they struggle financially to make ends meet. They are in need of basic furniture items for their home, including a couch, a kitchen table with 6 chairs, a vacuum cleaner, and clothing storage items. A plastic dresser or storage cart for each child would be ideal. The children include a girl (age 10) and three boys (ages, 7, 4, & 4). Thank you for any help you may be able to provide. Having a table and chairs in time for Thanksgiving would be a blessing.

A family is needing help getting by , the husband has just got out of Crane school and hasn't been hired for a job yet. This family has asked for food, shampoo/conditioner, toilet paper, paper towels , socks, bras, winter clothes and coats. With their being so many kids I did point them in the direction of Kadens Closet and Grace house for clothes/coats. And the crossing and second harvest wheels for food. I did say I would see what I can get. Thank you!

Single mom is a relative placement for her young niece, who is in foster care. The aunt has a car repair that needs to be done and desperately needs assistance. If there is anyone who can do the repair or help to pay for the repair, it would be greatly appreciated, as the aunt does not have the money. This car is the families only personal method of transportation. This would help the aunt to get to work, get the children to and from school, to therapy appointments and other necessary appointments. The aunt has gotten an estimate from an auto repair shop. The diagnosis is "leaking antifreeze from the oil cooler." The estimate repair cost is $718.40. Thank you for your consideration to helping this family.

A mother has been having a hard time trying to provide for her son and needs assistance with rent. She owes $600 for this month and has just moved into her new place. Any assistance would be appreciated. This would free up financial resources for the family.

Local family of 5 needing assistance with a leaky windshield. Mom shared that when it rains, rain just pours in to her front windshield of her truck. She showed me where you can push on the windshield and it moves, nearly popping out. The family does not have a garage to park in and parents are very concerned about upcoming freezing temps causing even more damage and safety concerns. Mom called and got a quote from Cameron Glass.

A two parent home with 6 children, are in need of exterminator for their new home. The family was able to move to a house within their means but it is infested with roaches'.

A mother of six month old twins has been struggling financially to provide for the babies. She needsan additional pack and play or a crib for the babies. This would help the family financially and help the family better follow safe sleep protocols.

This is a two parent family who has struggled for years trying to meet adequate housing requirements. They have a lot of needs, but if we could get help with a few specific things, it will prevent further required action from Children's Division. The floors of the home are plywood. They are in the need of Kilz to use on the floors and some walls. The family has tried to rid the home of roaches on their own with no success. An exterminator may be too expensive, but we're looking for an extermination of roaches if possible. Updated on November 16, 2023 by an Agency Worker
Family still in need.

I am working with a local family that is in need of assistance with a vehicle repair. Their primary vehicle had the air compressor go out in their car; which affects the cabin air intake, and power steering so it is not able to be driven. They requested a quote for the repair, and it will cost about $2,000. The family is aware that this is an expensive repair and is asking for any kind of assistance to cover part of the bill or help with performing the repair. The family has a child that is in need of medical care and reliable transportation is very important for this family!
