Help Strengthen a Bio Family

This family came to the attention of DCFS due to allegations of domestic violence by father against mother in front of their two children. There is a boy, age 6, and a girl, age 4. Mother has recently relocated herself and the children to a new home without father. Mother has limited resources and is in need of a sofa bed, twin bedding set including comforter and a king size bedding set including comforter.

Filling this need will help reduce stress and anxiety for mom, therefore increasing protective factors for the children and improving the general well-being of the entire family.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Stabilize Housing Insecurity

This family was living in a multi-generational home when the Los Angeles fires struck and destroyed everything. Since then, they’ve been couch surfing and bouncing between temporary stays in search of stability. They eventually secured a rental, but the rent is inflated, and the landlord has taken advantage of their urgent need for housing.

They’ve borrowed from family, taken out loans, and scoured thrift stores just to furnish the bare essentials. On move-in day, a faulty washer flooded the home. The landlord has refused to replace it or repair the damage, and now they must cover those costs themselves.

At the heart of this family is a mother who is a tireless advocate for foster youth and underserved communities. She spends her days fighting for children facing unimaginable challenges, always showing up with compassion and strength. She gives to others freely, even when she’s the one in need.

Financial support would ease the heavy burden they’re carrying and help them purchase basic household necessities like bedding, cleaning supplies, and other essentials. Your consideration means so much to a family that has given so much of themselves to others.

Family now is requesting assistance with purchasing a few items to make their house into a home. Items needed at this time is four high chairs (bar-stool) and sofas.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

This family includes four children ranging in age from newborn, 1 year old, 8 years old and 9 years old. While the baby has a crib to sleep in, the parents and other 3 children sleep on an old queen size mattress on the floor. They have a bunk bed frame for the two older children, but no mattresses. The family is experiencing financial hardship and cannot afford to purchase the mattresses themselves.

We are requesting 2 new twin size mattresses, as well as bedding for the beds (sheets, pillows and blankets), and face/body towels.

Adequate sleeping arrangements and proper sleep are essential for a healthy lifestyle. Filling this request will help improve the children's safety and well being and reduce stress and anxiety on the whole family.
