I am reaching out to request your support in helping a young female adult aging out of foster and moving into her first apartment. She is in need of the following items: full size bedsheets, comforter, pillows, pots and pans, cups, bowls, spoon, forks, plates, knife, can opener, mop, broom, cleaning supplies, female hygiene products, and dining room set. Thank you

I have a young adult in a HCS placement. This young adult needs continued stimulation for her growth. The young adult loves to color, draw, paint etc. She is very creative and it helps her with her stress. This young adult is limited on supplies at her placement. The young adult also has a small space she can work. A personal desk or television tray would be perfect for her to have to continue her artistic side. Any help would be greatly appreciated for this young adult.

I have a 12yo child that was placed in a kinship placement. She is in need of school uniforms for a new school she was enrolled in. This will help her not be in dress code violation. She will also need a dresser to store her clothing. She does not have storage, and this will help with storage.

We have a family displaced to a hotel in the Hobby airport area. We have helped them in various ways including providing mileage reimbursement. However, 2011 Volkswagen Routan SEL has broken several times. She says it gets overheated and uses alot of oil. In addition, the battery is dead. We are not sure exactly what is needed.

The parent was able to replace her battery yesterday. She put oil in it, but it all leaked out. She was able to call a mobile mechanic, and he told her the part that she needed to order from Amazon. It will be here tomorrow. He wants $450.00 for labor. Our new request is someone to put the part on or an affordable resource.

The screen door that goes to the backyard is broken and makes it nearly impossible for the kiddos to get out there and play. Not only is this a safety concern, but the two kids are always out playing in the backyard and this has hindered that. Screen door 81" L x 36" W (approximately, measured by FP)
