Pathway Church

Single mom is trying to move into a home of her own after staying in a shelter with her three children is seeking a few items for the household. Items needed include a microwave, table, toddler bed and a couch. She is incredibly appreciative of the help that has provided already from Pathway Church but these few items would greatly improve the quality of life and well being of her family as they settle into a new life. Gently used items would be wonderful or donation!

Good after all, I have a request for help from a bio family striving to stay together. Currently, this family of four is living in a shelter (Family Promise of Greater Wichita, 1111 St. Francis, 67214) They have been able to secure a perfect home to move to, but are looking for help with the deposit of $150. This is time sensitive and are looking to move in on Thursday, May 15th. We at KFAN are making this request to help improve the safety and wellbeing of the children.

We are working with a single mother of 3 young children. Mom has been in the system before and has huge trust concerns with DCF. We were able to break down some of the barriers and mom accepted help for the first time. Mom finally located a job and walks everywhere. She is needing a stroller for her two youngest children.

Good afternoon all, I am reaching out to our prayer family to request help addressing the immediate need of this expectant mother and child. This mom is striving to preserve her family unit. KFAN is requesting assistance from the CAREPORTAL participants to help the family move into a secure, safe and sanitary living environment. This assistance will keep the bio family from being homeless and prevent her young child from going into States custody. Staff members have contacted The Red Roof Inn and negotiated a cheaper nightly rate for a two week stay, while other resources are being sought. We are looking for any assistance that would help this family get into a safe place. The negotiated price is $450 per week, including tax.

Mom is a disabled single mother caring for her developmentally delayed toddler. Mom left a domestic violence situation and has been doing her best to improve her and her son's lives. Mom is on disability but only gets roughly $1000 monthly to take care of her and her son. Mom is unable to drive due to her disability and has many barriers. One of Mom's goals has been to get a job and she is hopeful to put her son in a summer program so she is able to do so. A summer program would also be helpful in improving her son's social skills and communication skills. The summer program is $330 every two weeks at TOPs Early Learning Center. We have an appointment to get her son enrolled in the summer program and are hoping that someone could help with one or two payments so her son could be in the program and Mom could find a job.

17/F mother in foster care is needing help with tow cost of getting her vehicle to a mechanic in find out why her car is not running and obtain an estimate for cost of repair. This young mother recently gave birth to a baby girl in December and has had some struggles with postpartum depression. Having a running vehicle will ensure that mother is able to attend her mental health appointments, medication management appointments, ensure baby is getting to her required checkups and help mom attend school and work to better herself and her child's life. Mother's car is currently at her foster home in Northeast Wichita and needs to be taken to a local mechanic. A repair shop has not been identified at this time, so any suggestions would be appreciated as well as initial tow cost covered.

A single mother of three young girls, twin toddlers that are 3yo and one that is 5yo. She has made a significant amount of progress in the case and we are expecting to fully reintegrate all three girls this month. Mom has worked very hard to make her home a safe and comfortable space for her children to reintegrate into, and has been using a rent-to-own service for her furniture and the cost has become unrealistic to maintain. She is needing a washer and dryer for her home to ensure the girls have clean clothing and replace the rentals. Any consideration would be appreciated. Thank you.
