A couple is expecting their first child in September. They are currently living out of a motel working minimum wage jobs. They are making steps towards better housing and better employment to support their newborn. The family needs help getting a new car seat and stroller, as they will need the car seat to safely leave the hospital upon the baby's arrival. There is a link attached to a car seat/stroller combo. Thank you for your support!
Car Seat/Stroller:
Parents are expecting their second child in the fall and are hoping to prepare for their baby's arrival. They are currently a family of 3, living in a studio apartment, and they will not be able to afford a home with more space. Therefore, the mom has requested specific items that will best accommodate their family and the space they have to work with. The mom is currently studying biology with plans to attend PA school in the future. The dad is currently working a job as a security guard, but is hoping to continue his education and certifications to find a higher paying job. They are asking for help getting a convertible car seat, a pack-n-play, and a portable swing. Below are links to the items the mom has picked out specifically to support them in their situation. We ask for each item in the request be split between different donors to help with the financial ask. Thank you for your support!

Single mother of 2 boys who is completely compliant in her treatment plan is in need of sneakers for her 20 month old son as he is growing rapidly and he needs these for his mobility. Mother also got a new car but is not working right now and due to her son's medical needs she could use help with gas for transporting to appointments and visits with their father and she can use any help toward paying her Xcel bill. Any help with any of the items would be appreciated, thank you.

Last month, a five year old little girl was placed with her great aunt, who is her current kinship caregiver. When the child was placed with the aunt, she arrived with an oversized t-shirt, shoes that were too small and one change of clothing that didn't fit. The caregiver is a single mother to 9 and 11 year old boys. The caregiver has bought her three outfits, which she rotates with every three days. She is hoping to purchase her a pair of shoes when she gets paid this week. The little girl could benefit from some new clothing - shirts, shorts, pants, summer dresses, underwear, socks, a light jacket, a swimsuit, and shoes. She wears a size 4T in clothing and size 9 in shoes.

DHS has been working with this family for almost three years and we are working with the parents on their second reunification with kiddo. One of the concerns DHS has is the past home the family lived in and still has their belongings in. Parents have new gorgeous apartment and no longer need to hold on to this home. DHS is able to help pay for a storage unit and parents have identified supports who are able to help them physically move things into the unit. Parents are in need of assistance with moving supplies (boxes, tape, lock for storage unit, cleaning supplies, etc.) and a gift card would be very helpful, helping them finally leave this past residence for good.

I have a placement who is caring for her two teenage nieces after they were abused in their adoptive home, she is wanting to send them to a summer church camp, Grace Church of Arvada, the cost is $150.00 per kid, + a $50 registration. ($350.00 needed total) Their caregiver is hoping to get help covering the costs while she works on becoming a certified foster home provider to care for the girls long term and get them some summer activities to participate in. (Recommendations for other summer activities/camps/events for a 17 y.o. & 11 y.o. would also be appreciated!!!)

We are hosting our very first Thriving CommUNITY Fair on June 10th, 2023. This fair supports Aurora and surrounding area families by providing resources, information, and services to help them thrive in the community. Our goal is to provide them with their basic needs: food, clothing, health care, housing, employment, education, child care and social supports. This supports our two-generation (2Gen) approach of providing opportunities for and meeting the needs of vulnerable children and their parents together, and vulnerable adults and their caregivers together. Our families will receive the services that put the whole family on a path of economic security.
We are in need of volunteers to make this event a success. We would love for you to join us and share this event with your church! If you're available, please sign up to volunteer here:

Single mother with 4 children in her care, ages 16, 15, 14, and 6. The children are all great kids that help their mother so much. She has overcome so much with struggles with the children's father regarding domestic violence and drug use that she reached out to the county due to her worries about the children's father and has put so much effort into overcoming these struggles and continuing to keep her children safe. They were homeless for the majority of 2022 and managed to find safe family members and other ways to ensure her children had safe shelter. She is requesting a home camera system to help her, and her children feel safer in their home every day.

Foster Source regularly receives requests for non-certified kinship caregivers in need of safety items. Non-certified kin can become certified and receive much needed financial assistance just like traditional foster parents. One of the requirements for certification are safety items - 5lb fire extinguishers, cabinet locks/outlet covers, medicine lock boxes, and carbon monoxide & smoke detectors. We could use your help in getting these items so that when families make the request, we have them on hand to distribute in a timely fashion. If you are able to provide any of these items (in any quantity), they can be delivered to our office within the Adams County Human Services Building (Westminster) or we can arrange a pick up. Thank you for helping us with this frequent and urgent need!

We have an amazing single foster mom who is looking forward to spending the summer with her foster son. They have lots of adventures planned but they are really looking forward to bike rides around their neighborhood. "B" is finally big enough to upgrade to a brand new bike but they could use some support from their community! This mama has already does so much and we are hoping to bless her and her sweet B with the ultimate summer gift - a brand new bike! We are looking for a boys bike, 12-14 inches. This one would work great but they are not picky:

Caseworker has a family in which 4 children total are placed with Grandmother. The 2 oldest children are 10-year old twins and they really want to be able to participate in their end-of-school-year bookfair. Caseworker talked with the school to see if they had resources to offset the cost to no avail. Caseworker also reached out to other funding sources at Denver Human Services which could not assist either at this time. Caseworker is asking for $70 in gift cards (or whatever amount is possible) so the two children can attend the book fair and pick out books for over the summer that will belong to them. Grandmother is on a budget and does not have the extra income for the children either.
