Unite Greater Dallas

I have a very large family that is limited on funds and the children have hardly any clothes and are in desperate need of some. This will allow for the children to have clean clothing in between washes. The family's. AC is also out and would greatly appreciate fans or anything to help keep them cool while waiting on repairs, it doesn't necessarily need to be a window unit.

I am currently working with a young, hard-working, pregnant mother of 1 who is about to lose all of her personal belongings This sweet mom unfortunately lost all 3 of her jobs and got evicted all within the span of a month earlier this summer. Nonetheless, against all odds, this mother has continued to make a way for herself and her daughter without any employment while also working to finish school. This mother has thankfully finally obtained a job, however, unfortunately her start date is not until next month and her storage unit payment is already past due. Everything this mom owns of hers and her daughters is in this storage unit and losing this would set her back so much further, as she cannot afford to buy more clothes, furniture etc. at this time. This mother is working so diligently to get back on her feet and to bring stability back to her daughter's life and just needs a little help until she obtains her first paycheck. Any little bit helps so that this mom does not lose all that she owns in an already overwhelmingly trying season. Thank you for your time.

A DallasISD family has been living in an extended stay for the past year. The family of six has recently received their voucher for housing in a nearby county and needs various necessities to provide a suitable living environment. Providing beds for this family of six is more than a gift—it's a blessing that gives these children a safe place to rest, the comfort of being cared for, and the stability they need to thrive in school and in life.

The family is seeking assistance with their utility bill. Mom and her partner have faced financial challenges due to recently switching jobs and moving into a new apartment to provide more space for their three children (two girls and one boy, ages 12, 13, and 16). The family has been cooperative with the agency and is maintaining employment. The transition into new jobs and the move have strained their finances. Mom has a strong work ethic, but unforeseen circumstances have arisen, and they require assistance for this month only. This support would strengthen the family bond, positively impact the children's well-being, and help them thrive in a supportive and stable environment.

A single mother of a 2 yr old boy is in need of a tire for her car. Discount Tire quoted her $120 for one, and $190 for two. She said at the time when she talked to discount tires, that they did not have any used tires available. Client would be grateful for whatever help she can get with her tires, either used or new. For sure, one tire needs to be replaced.

I am requesting grocery assistance for a family consisting of a mother, her 16-year-old child, and her 10-Month-old grandchild. The mother is currently the sole provider for the household and is working to meet all of the family’s basic needs on her own. Despite her efforts, the family is experiencing difficulty affording enough groceries to ensure everyone has adequate and nutritious food. Providing this support will help stabilize the family’s food situation and promote the children’s overall well-being.

The mother and her two teenagers have fled a domestic violence situation with the father. Extended family has gotten them a new apartment but they had to leave most items that the father had not broken or sold. They are in need of various clothing, household, and grocery items.

This placement family has been doing amazing at keeping this child safe while the child's mother works on her own needs. This placement has needed some help with daycare, but they do not meet requirments for a standard approval and the waiver system is not a short process, but their wallet could benefit from some assistance now.

The family would be put in a place to be set ahead for a month if they had at least a free month of daycare, and hopefully by then, the child will be allowed to return home if mom is able to make some progress!

This little girl is a social butterfly and is very articulate for 3 years old, so daycare would be the perfect place for her to continue to develop her social skills. her daycare is $500 a month and would greatly benefit the cargivers to have her at a daycaare that is close to them and works with their work schedule since they work atypical jobs.

The home has not been thoroughly cleaned and the family can no longer contain it without assistance. It is important that the home is cleaned for the infant's well-being.

A youth in extended foster care has recently moved by himself to his college dorm. He is a full-time student and employee who is trying his hardest to live a normal life fresh out of foster care. He is making great strides as a young adult in the real world but needs a little extra support with the more expensive necessities. Any help will be appreciated.

I have a single mother with a 5-month-old baby. The mother has a permanent leg injury, due to a car wreck. She is in need of a stroller, to help safely move her baby around the house. She is also in need of a highchair, as the baby is starting baby food, but doesn't have a chair to eat in.

The children of this family have been in a placement with their grandmother for the last 6 months and they are returning back to their mother. She recently moved into a new place and currently cannot afford school clothes for them. She is asking for 3 pants, 3 shirts, and a pair of shoes for each child.
