Hello, I am writing on behalf of a family of three that is going to be moving into a new place on April first. Mom is leaving a difficult situation, and will be starting over with nothing for her or her two kids. Mom is in needs of all things for her new apartment, as she will not be brining anything from her previous home. Anything from dishware, to dinning table and chairs, couches, bedding, kids clothes, they could use any support to start themselves over again in this new place.

This is a single mother who is caring for three children all on the spectrum. She has recently been struggling with transportation as she needs a new car battery. She is needing to get the battery ASAP as not having a car is limiting her ability to continue her job search, classes and other basic needs that involve personal transportation.

CASA has a really hard case with a 13-year-old girl who was removed from the adults in her life due to really extreme physical abuse, sexual abuse and neglect. She is a child of color and does not know how to take care of her hair properly and it is very damaged. Some products that have been recommended to her are Hair Mayonnaise, several products from My Black is Beautiful (shampoo, conditioner, conditioning cream and detangling spray) and to get braids (needs the hair pieces to braid in). Items can be bought in-person or online and will be delivered to the youth by the advocate, who she trusts. Thank you for considering helping with this unique request. ###-#### 3 packs of:
