Good afternoon, DCCCA is currently working with a single mother who struggles with a fracture vertebra, she also has a son who has diabetes and other medical diagnosis. He often needs treatment and has multiple appointments. This mother lost her job due to severe spinal issues and is currently doing the best she can with what she has. This worker apologizes in advance for the amount we need, but I would not ask for such, if I did not know her true situation. Unfortunately, her car needed multiple repairs causing her auto repair bill to be $1950. The mother is asking for support with $500 dollars that can be paid directly to the shop. Mother is also open to speak with donors and find other solutions if needed. Thank you for your ongoing support. We wouldn’t be able to do our jobs without you.

The family is needing a full size mattress and bed frame for the grandmother, 3 dressers for each of the boys, a tv for the living room, and a washer and dryer.

Mom has a Section 8 voucher for housing. However, she is in need of the deposit to be able to move in on October 1, 2023. She is currently enrolled in school, a 7 week phlebotomy program.

This is actually for a family on the KS in JOCO, but I had to try to find someone to help. Mother and son are going to be evicted and need their rent paid as soon as possible with the last possible day being the 25th of september. Mom was unemployed due to her car being wrecked but recently she has started a new job and should be able to sustain the family going forward after this. Mom is so worried about having to move because they have no support system here and her son really loves the school he goes to, has made a lot of friends, and likes being able to be on a sports team. Mom was able to pay part of her rent but they still owe 1241.80. Mom has not asked for help in the past and when we talked she just said, "it's really hard for me to say this, but I need help. I don't know what else to do".
