We are working with a local family that has adopted special needs child and are having a mold issue in their home. As a result they are being moved from rental to rental. This a great stress on the family to be out of their wheelchair accessible home. Due to the neighborhood requirements they still to maintain the yard during the months the home is uninhabitable. We would like to help them with their lawn care for 3 months, to allow them to focus on caring for their children, the extra attention needed for their special needs child , and getting back into their home. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

We currently have two children in the office and are needing an air fryer to cook for them. We do not have a stove only microwaves.

A case manager is requesting support for two siblings—an 11-year-old girl and a 12-year-old boy—who are currently in custody and residing with relatives in South Carolina. The children were previously living with their custodial aunt, who recently passed away. Following her death, they re-entered custody due to the absence of any local relatives able to take them in. Sadly, the case manager had to bring them back to Maury County on 5/6 to visit their mother, who is on life support, so they can say their final goodbyes. They will be returning them to their caregivers Friday 5/9 . While they have since been placed with extended family in South Carolina, the process of setting up financial support has taken longer than expected. The relatives caring for them have already covered significant upfront costs, including after-school care, school supplies, and school-related fees, and are now in need of additional assistance. The Family Service Worker (FSW) is requesting $200 for each child to help the family purchase appropriate clothing for the local weather and school requirements. Although the family has the means to continue caring for the children, this one-time assistance would help ease the financial burden until formal support payments begin in the coming weeks. We would love to have them lovingly cared for as they shop for their needs during such a difficult time. Social Worker can assist with shopping on Wednesday afternoon 5/7.

This request is regarding a single foster parent who fosters teen boys. She currently has 4 teen boys in the home. This foster parent is amazing with these teens and has been a faithful foster parent for the past 4 years. The teens refer to her as "Grandma." She goes above and beyond to serve children in need and is truly a blessing to everyone she interacts with.

Grandma's roof was recently damaged by storms, and she is having to get it replaced. She needs assistance with paying the deductible for this. She is on a fixed income and paying for this deductible herself would greatly impact the budget she is living off of to support her foster children.

I would also love to see some support for takeout gift cards for a couple of dinners. Having construction at your house can get very chaotic and not having to worry about dinner during this project would be a huge support.

Thank you so much for wrapping around this foster mom who is giving above and beyond to care for local youth! *** Update 05/08 *** Thanks to a refund from the insurance we only need $2,400 of the $5,000. So there is only $500 remaining. *** Update 05/08 *** This request is fully funded and the check is send to the Roofing Company
