Hello there. I am reaching out to request assistance with an electric bill for a very caring and supportive foster family. They have provided a loving and stable placement for a 10-year-old boy since October. The child has been exhibiting some increasingly concerning behaviors over the recent months and the family has had a great deal on their plate as a result. They have expressed that they have hit some hard times financially and could use a little help with their electric bill. Any help that you may be able to provide this family would be immensely appreciated! Thank you so much for your time and consideration!

Maternal aunt and uncle in need of VISA card for gas. She is working on getting a guardianship of her nephew and drives him to several Family Time visits and other appointments in Tulsa throughout the week. Maternal aunt and child live in Haskell where there is no Quik Trip, so a VISA card would be preferred for gas.

A kinship placement took in 5 children in December and through no fault of their own have not yet received a monthly stipend. They are currently needing help with their utility bills. Their water bill is $171.47 and ONG bill is $190.40. This placement has worked hard to keep this sibling set together while juggling the unexpected financial challenges of 5 additional children. Please consider helping this family with this need, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

The mother entered into a juvenile deprived case with her current child and has done exceptionally well, turning her life around and her case is about to close. There was domestic violence and the mother filed for and received a protective order from the father so there is not any contact with him at this time. The mother found out she is expecting and it is a high risk pregnancy. The mother is in need of baby items including a car seat and infant clothing, diapers, blankets and any other items associated with an infant because she is unable to work at this time. The mother's DHS case will be closing in a week so she will not have any of the services when the baby is due in September. If these needs are met, it would take the stress off the mother and she can focus on taking care of her current child and prepare for the new one. Mother is expecting a girl but does not care for pink, prefers purple and yellow for a girl.

Mom is needing some things in order to move into the home. Mom has a toddler mattress for one of her children, but she is needing help with getting a toddler bed frame.

Parents need your help paying the summer camp fee of $675 in order to provide a positive peer opportunity for their 14 year old son with other disabled children. Their son is non-verbal, autistic and an epileptic. One of the parents’ plans to attend this camp with their son. This young boy needs and deserves lots of positive interaction with peers in a supervised and safe atmosphere so he can experience new things available at this camp. By covering even a portion of the camp fee, you will be making a huge difference in this family’s life. This boy will be able to zip line through the woods, jump off a diving board amidst a cheering crowd and create a lifelong relationship with a camp friend among many other camp activities. The Family and Child Welfare thank you for considering assisting with this fee. Again, any donation amount will go to pay for this young boy’s camp fee.

A family of four have worked very hard to get to the place where they are looking at reunifying. The single mother has housing but none of the children have beds. We are requesting 4 beds so that each child can have his/her own bed at night. This could two sets of bunkbeds or four twin sized beds.

Father of three children who have been in DHS custody for a year is in need of completing a program which requires an initial assessment. The initial assessment fee is 95.00 and the father is not able to cover the cost at this time. The program that needs to be completed is 52 weeks long, so the father getting started as soon as possible is important. Permanency worker is asking for someone to pay the assessment fee.

I have a mom who got behind on the rent when she had to take off work to have a baby. She's been able to get almost all the way caught up but is still a little short. With her rent caught up, we'll feel more secure in closing her case, knowing she has a safe place for her children to stay.

Hello! I have a Grandmother who has placement of her grandchildren and is looking for a foldable metal twin bed frame for her Granddaughter. If anyone has one available that could donate one or has the funds to purchase that would be amazing and Grandma would really appreciate it! Thank you!!
