I have a 12 year old boy who is placed at a group home. He is in need of some new clothes that would be appropriate for the cold weather. He is in need of athletic pants and comfortable shirts. This child is Autistic and he will need clothes that he can easily take on and off. We would prefer the pants to have a drawstring. He wears a size XL in pants and shirts. Meeting this need would help him to have enough warm clothes for the cold weather. We would appreciate any and all support!

I have a disabled mom who is attempting to reunify with her twins. She needs assistance paying her rent of $1000. Part of her treatment plan is to have a safe and stable home. This would help her immensely.

OKDHS is working a prevention case with a family with two small children. The parents are engaging with services and are making great progress in a very short time. However, transportation is a huge barrier for this family. The mother just got a job and needs a way to get to and from work. The father needs a way to get to his services. We are asking for a 31 day bus pass to help the parents overcome this transportation barrier. Thank you for your generosity!

A grandmother and her two grandchildren are dealing with the death of their grandfather several weeks ago. Plans to buy a new stove and washing machine were upended by the costs of the head of household's funeral. The grandmother is asking for assistance with getting a new stove and washing machine into the house for the welfare of the children as finances are running short. There is income from different sources, but the closeness of events has hurt the family's savings. The appliances do not need to be purchased if reliable replacements could be found. Assistance would be greatly appreciated at this time.

There is a wonderful mom who needs some assistance right now. She was in a car wreck and is need of an Uber gift card until the car is repaired. She is in minimal pain and continues to engage in services. She relies on family, friends, the bus, or Uber for transportation. If this need is met, this mom will be able to travel safely around Tulsa and engage in her services. Thank you for partnering with Oklahoma's families!

Mom lives in Texas and has made great strides to get back on track and has done so. She is currently taking care of her other child safely and financially and has paid off all her debt to get back to Oklahoma. The child recently lost his only other family member (grandmother) in which the child had a strong bond a couple of months ago from organ failure. Mom has secured the money for the Uhual; paid off all outstanding debts and has the funds for the 1st months’ rent on the new apartment in Tulsa; but is just short of the deposit. The kiddo has been placed in a new foster home and bio mom has attended and participated in all services with OKDHS, including making a complete lifestyle change to do so.

We have a mother having major hardships at the moment. Her vehicle has broken down and this is making it nearly impossible to get to work and is hindering visiting with her children. Uber and Lyft is costing her a fortune and it's hard for her to keep up with everything. This mother is living pay-check to pay-check and isn't getting easier for her. This has caused her to miss family time with her children, which isn't like her. She has reached out to us pleading for whatever help she can get. A mechanic has told her that it will cost upwards $800 to fix her vehicle. With paying rent and everyday necessities she has been unable to reach that amount. The mechanic says the engine has completely gone out. She does have another vehicle the same model as the one she has now that is down due to a wreck she had. The engine in that one is fine and the mechanic advised her that that engine could be put in her current vehicle but $800 is the best price she has been given. This mother only seeks help, it doesn't have to be cash, just possibly someone that help get her vehicle up and going again. So if anyone fixes vehicles or knows someone that does she would appreciate that greatly. She is devastated that she has had to miss seeing her children when she is unable to afford or get a ride to family time. Any help from the community would benefit her in so many ways.

A family of 3 is in need of help. The family is currently working services while their 2 year old is staying with friends. The family is struggling to not only be able to see their child, but also to make it to appointments and to work as their car is unreliable and they do not have the funds to fix it. Mom is pregnant and is working to help support her and her children while Dad is also looking for a job. Bus passes for these parents would not only help them make it to the appointments for their pregnancy, but also to work so they can continue receiving care and services and so they can see their kiddo while they work on getting her back home. Please help this family get back on their feet and support them in their time of need.
