The Creek

This family has requested assistance with before and after school care for the remainder of the school year. This child thrives on consistent routine and is worried if they are not able to continue with this routine for the remainder of the school year it will cause disruption to the child's behavior progress.

This family is still looking for any assistance they can receive to finish out the school year on the routine this kiddo thrives on. These fees are due now so if anyone is able to assist with even partially meeting this need, it is greatly appreciated.

Hello, I have a relative placement that needs our help with a dresser, a twin bed frame and an outdoor water activity table. The only requirement for the dresser is to please keep in mind this dresser will be in a bedroom with 4 children under the age of 8. :-) This relative placement is simply amazing and needs our help.

Thank you in advance, Erin Gutierrez KVC Kinship Coordinator(###) ###-####

After years of separation caused by circumstances beyond their control, a 16-year-old in foster care is finally ready to reunite with their father and stepmother in Georgia. This isn’t just a visit—it’s a permanent, long-awaited move home. The bond between father and child has been carefully and lovingly rebuilt over time, and the family is overjoyed to welcome their teen into a stable, supportive home. Now, with the school year coming to a close, everything is in place—except the funds to get them there.

We’re asking for your help to cover the cost of a plane ticket and the extra baggage fees, and shipping fees needed to bring the teen's belongings—things that make a young person feel like they’re bringing their life with them, not starting from scratch. Help a child in foster care find their forever home, where love and safety wait with open arms. Your support could make that dream a reality. Every donation is a step closer to family, healing, and hope. We appreciate any support and funding that can be provided to help this child become part of their family again.

A 16-year-old in foster care is preparing for a life-changing move to reunite with their father and stepmother—finally heading to their forever home. While this moment is full of hope, it also comes with anxiety. After experiencing a devastating loss in the past where all of their belongings were lost, the idea of putting their things on a plane feels deeply unsettling.

To help ease this worry, we’re hoping to provide luggage tracking tags (like AirTags or similar tracking devices) for their multiple bags. Being able to see where their belongings are would bring immense peace of mind during an already emotional and overwhelming transition. If you can contribute funds or send a tracker directly, you’ll be offering more than just technology—you’ll be offering comfort, security, and a small sense of control in a big, uncertain moment.

Good afternoon! I am requesting community assistance to support a pregnant older youth on my caseload and help get her a Bassinet for her baby for when they are born in Sep 2025. My youth in question is a 18 and MO Foster Youth currently in care. She is presently living in a apartment transitional program in Kansas City and working part time. My youth has very little to no family support and thus she has limited financial means to get some of the more expensive items needed to care for a newborn.

My youth would like the following Bassinet Go To Link but she would be open to other options as well.

Thank You!!

One of the children on my caseload was moved to a kinship placement. This kinship placement purchased an air mattress but does not currently have the funds to purchase a bed. A bed is requested to ensure that the child will remain comfortable in this home.

Single mother with two children has fallen on hard times. She recently was hospitalized due to suffering multiple strokes and a heart attack. Mother than came home from the hospital, only to realize that her water heater had broken and her plumbing in the bathroom leaking. Mother is able to afford the cost of the $400 water heater but is unable to afford the $1200 that is needed to install the water heater. Mother does not have an estimate on how much the plumbing of the bathroom would cost at this time. The family does not have a working oven, so they are unable to even heat water on the stove for warm baths. They are currently bathing at the local community center or using their sink. To warm up food, the family is using a toaster oven.

Mother is unable to work at this time, as she is attempting to recover from her medical conditions. She does have some family support, but due to the costs of the repairs and appliances, they are unable to assist. Any assistance with the cost or labor for this family to have the basic necessities, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your consideration!

A kinship placement had 3 children placed with them, and are needing help providing a mattress and bed sheets, and a mattress protector for one of the children.

One of my young children from my case load, asked me for a vanity dresser and a sofa. She needs the vanity dresser for her room because she doesn't have one, and it would allow her to get ready and do her makeup. As for the sofa, she requested it because the ones in the living room are very worn out.

This is still a need. Can anyone help with this request?
