Help Strengthen a Bio Family

We have a young, single mother of 3 children (ages 1, 4 and 5). She is experiencing unstable housing and financial stress. The mother is a victim of domestic violence and is trying to keep her children sheltered and safe from harm. The mother has been residing with the maternal grandmother in a single unit apartment with the children. The MGM put the mother and children out on yesterday and stole the mother’s food stamps from her EBT card. The mother is not able to purchase any food for herself and the children. She was able to get a room in Hollywood through PATH and is awaiting placement in a DV shelter. DCFS and the agencies involved with this family are working tirelessly to find a residence the mother and children. The mother can be reached on her cell phone and the CSW is able to correspond with the mother accordingly. We are hoping that a donor will pick up this request and provide the family with a $300.00 grocery gift card or purchase food for the family so that the mother and children do not go hungry.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

We have a mother who has a six-month old baby that is teething. The mother is very resilient and is thriving with all of her programs she is involved in. She is a domestic violence survivor and is using her experience to build and grow within her life. She is in therapy to address the concerns that brought her family to the attention of the Department. She is a domestic violence survivor. She is a good mother who truly cares for her daughter. During our meetings the baby is always smiling and giggling. Recently, the baby began teething and is in need of hypoallergenic-silicon weaning cups, baby spoons, feeding set, and food making system (NutriBullet). I am in hopes that some of these items can possibly make it to her.

Help Prevent a Child From Entering Foster Care

I am currently working with a single mother who is currently in the hospital about to give birth. Mother has a open case with her six year old daughter. Mother has successfully secured housing and is in complete compliance with all court orders. We are tying to prevent the Department from detaining the newborn. Mother needs to have basic necessities when the Department goes to the hospital. Mother has most of the items but not the car seat. Mother continues to work very hard to reunify with her daughter and is following all court orders and recommendations. The case put a financial strain on mother as she had to attend various classes throughout her dependency case and purchasing new items to prepare for the new baby. Mother would be grateful for any assistance , thank you in advance.

The parent had surgery done and is possibly having a second surgery, the parent has been out of work due to her medical situation and is struggling to provide for her family. While the parent gets back on feet and starts back at work we would like to offer them a $400 gift card to help out with food, gas and other daily items they need. This will improve the well being of this student and sibling and also improve their attendance in school. We appreciate any help that can be provided for this family.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

We are reaching out to request assistance in helping a devoted single mother cover her rent for the month. She works two jobs while caring for her 1st-grade daughter, doing everything she can to stay afloat. Despite her tireless efforts, the financial burden has become overwhelming. Help with rent would prevent housing instability and provide critical relief as she works to regain stability. Any support—big or small—would mean the world to this family. This mother exemplifies strength and perseverance. She balances long work hours with the demands of parenting, making sure her daughter has the stability and care she needs. Her daughter is bright, kind, and full of potential, and her mom is determined to give her every chance to succeed. After falling behind on utility bills, most of her recent income went toward catching up, leaving little for rent. Like many families living paycheck to paycheck, one setback has caused a ripple effect that’s difficult to recover from without help. She’s not asking for a handout but a hand up. Your support can help this mother avoid eviction, provide stability for her daughter, and offer the hope they need to keep moving forward.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

I am working with a family of six—a mother and her five young children—who are in need of support. Family has experienced homelessness and has been able to overcome many challenges. As the children have grown, the limited space in their home has made it difficult to provide each child with a safe and comfortable place to sleep. To help meet her family’s needs, the mother is seeking assistance with obtaining a bunk bed.

This furniture would significantly improve the children’s living conditions by creating more space and ensuring a safer sleep environment. Due to ongoing financial hardship, the mother is unable to afford this on her own. Providing this support would strengthen her ability to care for her children and offer her greater peace of mind as she continues to meet their daily needs. The cost of the bunk bed is 169.99 with a shipping fee of 79.99=249.98. Go To Link Along with mattress Twin XL over Twin XL Go To Link

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

This is a father with current child welfare involvement. Father has one child that is currently released in his care. The department has informed the father that he needs two dressers in order to prevent a cluttered home environment. If father is blessed with the two dressers, it will prevent the department from having concerns in the future and allow the father to move forward with the closing of his case. Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide this father and his children.

Help Support a Youth Aging Out

Current non-minor dependent recently moved into an apartment with his dog. He isn't able to work right now due to an injury so he is tight on cash. He needs a couch and refrigerator. He would be much more comfortable with those items and could focus on healing properly.
