Help Reunify a Bio Family
I am working with a non-offending father to get his 5 year old daughter in his care, but he is in need of a bed for her. They are in need of a twin mattress, box spring, bed frame and bedding (sheets/comforter) for her. Thank you for your consideration.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family
I am working with a single father who got his children back (8 year old boy and 4 year old girl) in December and we are getting close to closing the case. He would really benefit from some Uber or Lyft gift cards so that father can take his daughter to daycare and get to work on time. He usually takes the bus, but it has not been getting him there in time. He is able to afford Lyfts/Ubers sometimes, but does not always have the money. Father's schedule will be changing once summer starts and this will no longer be an issue.

I work with a mother who is working to get her son back in her care and is preparing her new home for in-home visits. She is in need of almost all household items. Here's a brief list: pots/pans dishes/cups silverware dish clothes dishwasher detergent laundry detergent household cleaners bath towels anything else you can think of for a new home (kitchen, bathroom, etc.)
This would really help this mother prepare her home for in-home visits. We will be purchasing a bed for the child, but she may also need sheets, blankets, pillows. I think anything would help. She was living in the home with no furniture for a couple of months. Prior to getting this home, she was living on the streets for several months.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing
The family is in need of diapers for two medically fragile children. Mother is currently out of work due to caring for the severely medically fragile children. She has also not been able to obtain any outside assistance due to the severity of the children and needs of their medical care. The family is in need of size 3 and size 6 diaper, as well as wipes. There are no particular brands that the children need as they are just in need of the supplies.

Father recently obtained 50/50 custody of his two children after surviving and healing from a gunshot wound after being the victim of a road rage incident. Father had to quit his good paying job when he was shot and now has a weight restriction of 5lbs, making it so he is unable to get many jobs he has applied for since being able to walk again. Father is completely starting over and has only obtained a minimum wage job at this time. Father currently has an air mattress for himself and the two children that they all share. Father and children are currently in a studio apartment until father is able to get back on his feet. Father requested assistance obtaining a queen size bed and a couch for the family. Father stated the kids can share a bed and he can sleep on the couch. Father stated he has always struggled with asking for help but stated he is very happy to accept help and the whole experience has left him very humbled. Father and children would be very grateful for any assistance provided to them.
