This request is for a single mother with four young children in the age of 8,3-, and 1-year old twins. Natural mother has been engaging in her court ordered plan and maintaining her sobriety for a month now. She is consistently having difficulties with transportation due to the tires on her car. The tires have been so worn out that they need to be replaced immediately. For the time being, she has been getting rides from anyone she can find to attend all her obligations. Where she lives, the public bus requires multiple transfers and hours to get to just one service provider. A donation for three new tires or partial donation is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

A family is needing some help with a few items to help support a brother staying in the home of his adult sibling. The adult sibling recently obtained guardianship of him to prevent him from being placed in OKDHS custody. This was a last-minute situation for the family with no time to prepare. They are needing a few items to help make this transition smooth and as little disruption to his needs. He had no items to bring with him to his siblings home. He is currently wearing a size 7/8 shirt (closer to 8), size 5/6 pants, and shoe size 12. He wears a size 8 coat and does not have one for the upcoming cooler weather. He does attend a school that requires uniforms (Royal Blue, Navy Blue, and White Polo/khaki, black, and navy pants). He enjoys Super Mario and Minecraft. His favorite color is red. His sibling has a full-size mattress for him. During her recent move to a larger home (to accommodate him), they lost the hardware to his bedframe so his mattress is currently on the floor. She has requested, if possible, either a box spring or bed frame.

A kinship foster mother who is the grandmother to teen child placed with her has two shut off notices. One shut off notice is for electric and one shut off notice is for her gas. She also owes back rent to her landlord. This foster mother is currently trying to become fully approved but has had to miss some of her training due to her car breaking down and she has had to use much of her money to repair her car. I have confirmed these needs by receiving copies of her shut off notices. If these needs aren't met the child may have to placed in a traditional home and not stay with his grandmother whom he has had a relationship with during his entire life.

Two parents have worked extremely hard to get their baby back. They have done extraordinarily well. Income is tight, and they ride bikes to get where they need to go. A bike buggy to assist them in taking the baby with them would be super helpful. The child has been back in the home for a few months and is doing so well with his parents. Again a new or used bike buggy (they have bikes) would be fantastic to helping them.
