The family is in desperate need of a new full-size mattress. After multiple flooding incidents due to faulty piping in their previous apartment, their full-size mattress was ruined which two of their children used. The family was subsequently rushed out of the apartment and while they were able to find a new apartment, they do not have the financial means to purchase a new mattress at this time. The family has five wonderful children between the ages of 2 and 10 and both parents in the home work full-time schedules just to make ends meet and provide for the basic needs of their children. One of the younger children is also in need of a bigger car seat. The family is not one to ask for help, but they have found themselves in a position where help is simply needed.

Client is pregnant with second child and feeling very nauseated. Client has a three year old daughter and husband is working three jobs to sustain family financially. Client recently had an accident and fractured her foot. It is proving hard to care for her daughter and keep up with home duties on crutches. Client inquired and found out her insurance will not cover a scooter. Therefore, client needs to rent one for a few months while she waits to meet with a surgeon at the beginning of May. Client found a place that charges $100 dollars a month to rent.
This will help client care better for her daughter and herself. Client in concerned it will get harder to walk on crutches as her pregnancy advances. Client will get payment information from rental company for donor to pay directly.
The child just reunited with his father who lives out of state in Wisconsin. He is currently having to share a bed and dad has a bed frame but is really needing a twin size mattress for the child to put in his room. The child is really excited to have his own room and decorate it.

Maternal grandparents are caring for their grandchildren. They were previously living with parents, but when it became unsafe, grandparents left the home with the children. They were previously living with friends while they were in the process of renting a home. The family is low income and grandmother has a disability and unable to work. The family is looking for a wonderful individual who may have a few dressers they would like to donate or a toddler bed that their child may have grown out of. Due to the young ages of the children, rugs would also be great to help keep the carpet clean.

Student is a HIGHLY motivated youth and very active in work and school. She is currently residing with her grandma and is managing to drive herself to school and work every day. She will be a senior in the coming fall and will need a Chromebook laptop to take on-line classes at the community college while she finishes her high school diploma. By donating gas cards and/or a laptop, it will help her own financial burden of needing gas for her car every day and help set her up for success in school. Any computer new or refurbished would be appreciated, thank you.
